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'm a K-2 teacher working with an incredible group of studentd who benefit from a classroom environment that supports their sensory, emotional, and learning needs. These tools (cushions, paint, headphones, diffusor, art trays, chair bands) will help my students stay focused and regulated during learning activities. Your generous donation will help my students feel calm and comfortable, especially duing transitions and independent work time. With your support, we can create a space where every student feels safe, supported, and ready to learn. Thank you for helping us build a school environment that meets every child where they are.
