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

As a first year teacher, I am excited to build a classroom where every student feels supported, inspired, and equipped to learn. To create this classroom, I'm seeking help to stock essential classroom supplies like disinfecting wipes, Cardstock Laminating Pouch, and learning materials. These resources will allow me to focus on teaching and creating a positive learning environment without the added stress of out of pocket expenses.

Your support will mean the world to my students and I by helping them start the year with everything they need to thrive.

Your support will make a direct impact on my students' success from day one of the school year.
