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

My students are in the midst of their middle school education. They are fun, serious and goofy sometimes all at the same time. Many students come to school without books or supplies. I want to provide students with engaging, relevant novels and the materials to write about them inside and out of class.

You can help make a difference with your generous donations.

With your help, student will be able to choose novels to read in class. They will also have notebooks to use to write about their chosen novels.
