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 a school psychologist that works with approximately 900 students. I want to grow my social emotional library so I have the tools to help my students tackle their feelings. These books will be used in a variety of ways such as in individual or small groups counseling sessions as well as in whole class learning sessions. Books are such a valuable part of kids learning. These books will support kids from title 1 schools, kids with disabilities and kids who just need some social emotional support. Your generosity can help so many students now and for years to come.
