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

Our students are hardworking and energetic. I love their energy and the passion they have for participating in class. I am a teacher and coach in my school. They are making major budget cuts to the school system next year. Some teachers are even being surplussed. There is not enough money for sports equipment and supplies to purchase what we need to run a high quality physical education and health program like our students deserve. They are hardworking, energetic high school students who need proper sports equipment and cleaning supplies to receive a quality education.

These resources will allow our program to be fantastic We are ready to release our endorphins to improve our mental and physical health.
