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

KIds have more energy and their intrigue in a better world is left on the computer… Except I aim to change that by making them better at understanding the rules of an adult's financial decisions!! This way they can be curious about their future career!!

That is why these funds will help my students stay focused with fidget foot bands and the use of an occasional chime to hear nice and loud.

Since learning cannot happen when a person's mind is busy on something else. This project would help them stay focused all day!!
