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

To continue our wonderful year on the right foot, we will need to replenish some supplies! In addition to keeping our classroom clean and germ-free, I would like for all of my students to have brand new writing tools, cleaning supplies, and more.

Having the basic supplies shows children how important it is to be set up for success in their classroom.

Whether it is new cleaning supplies, new pencils, new pens, access to tissue whenever they need it, children will see their worth and the importance of continuing to be successful learners.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
