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

I am so excited for a new group of students next year! Each year, classrooms need basic supplies for students to be successful. These basic supplies include pencils, erasers, dry-erase markers, folders, and more. I love to see my new students when they receive their first day of school supplies.

My students deserve the best and I always try to give them that!

School supplies often are not supplied by the school and the funds come out of the teacher's pocket. It is difficult to keep up with everything students need.
