Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Our lovely district media specialist was able to coordinate the donation of over 300 8"x10" canvases from our local library! This is an incredible opportunity for our students to get to paint on a material we normally do not have access to. However, unfortunately, due to district financial strain, we were not able to place any supply orders this year and we do not have enough paint for even one class to paint.

Please help my students and I take advantage of this exciting opportunity by donating to our DonorsChoose, and providing us with the paint we are so excited to use.
