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

This project will allow students to celebrate the fall season. We are honored to have had enough pumpkins donated for each student in the 4th grade. While deciding how to engage students with the pumpkin donation, the fourth-grade team of teachers felt as though a pumpkin painting party would best fit our students! We are hoping to have the supplies donated for this party, as we are a low-income school and many of our students do not always have access to these types of activities and needed supplies. Any donation would be greatly appreciated!
