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

I work in a school in the Bronx that is Title I. We do not receive a lot of funding for new supplies. My students love to read and I want to continue to foster that love of reading. I am requesting some new books, magazine holder and furniture to organize and house those objects. I really want a fresh new look in my classroom with fresh new reading material. The books my students have are so old and outdated. They are getting bored. Hey! Please help us out!
