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 have been at my school for 16 years because I love the community and students!

Please help me provide my students with sports equipment to use during recess!

I am the school librarian and after reading and checking out books, I take our third, fourth, and fifth grade students out for recess every day. The kids would really like to have sports equipment, like balls, bats, frisbees, and jump ropes to play with while we spend time outside. They would be so appreciative of having this equipment available to them!
