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

We all know that students learn better when they come to school on a consistent basis. We also know that they are more likely to come to school if they enjoy it. Help us to reward our students for coming to school and have some fun at the same time.

Imagine the smiles when a cupid shows up at your classroom with chocolate kisses for everyone there or a leprechaun bounds around campus handing out chocolate coins.

These items will allow us to spread some smiles and fun to our students. Hopefully school will be a place that they not only learn but they also enjoy. They will be much more willing to learn somewhere they enjoy being.
