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

Although the school year is coming to an end, the need for cleaning supplies will always be indispensable. The cleaning supplies and classroom essentials in this project will directly support our students learning journey in many ways.

With shared materials being a cornerstone of our collaborative learning approach, disinfecting wipes and hand sanitizer will help prevent the spread of germs that often lead to student absences.

When my students are healthy and present, they build on their learning consistently instead of struggling to catch up after illnesses.

Paper towels and tissues are the basics for any classroom. Kids make messes, and quick clean ups after inevitable spills is a must. During the flu and allergy seasons, having tissues available really come in handy. Beyond the practical applications, these supplies send an important message to my students that their learning experience in a clean and healthy environment matters.

Your support of this project would mean more than just supplies—it would give my students the message that their education is valued by a broader community. Thank you for considering this investment in their future success.
