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

Basic supplies are a must for all students. Unfortunately, many parents are not able to provide the basic supplies their kids need in school. A pencil, crayons, or markers should be readily available so that all students are able to participate in class.

I want to provide my students with some "tools" to be successful in school.

My goal is for my students to feel free to go and get the supplies they need when they need them. Anything from pencils, markers, or crayons can help a student feel successful.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
