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

Please help our students to feel good about themselves and have a positive mindset and come to school everyday feeling good about themselves. Some families have a hard time discussing hygiene and health with their kids. Also, some families cannot afford an extra expense. We all know this, because even the cost of eggs has sky rocketed.

We are forced to choose between food and an extra expense, that extra expense being deodorant and chapstick and other toiletries.

Most have no choice, but to choose the food. I don't blame them!

So, please help us to help our students and our family with health and wellness.

Ms. S.
Grades 3-5
