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

The goals for this project are to replenish our cleaning materials so that we can continue keeping an organized, sanitized, and fresh classroom.

A clean and fresh smelling classroom helps promote cognitive skills as it provides my students with an environment that feels safe and organized.

Lastly, this project also will provide my students with Valentine's Day gift bags filled with candy, pencils, stickers, sharpeners and other festive goodies.

Thank you so much for considering a donation to my classroom.

We are so grateful for your support as it truly makes a difference.

Ms. O'Brien PS 86 Kingbridge Heights Grades 3-5
