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

My high school special education classroom is in constant need of various types of materials to meet different types of student needs.

We are in need of paint supplies.

Painting activities have been an activity they enjoy doing, as they help soothe their anxiety and support their creativity.

The classroom is in need of binders to store their worksheets, and a few books to support their learning.

To keep everything clean and sanitary, we are in constant need of Lysol spray.

These items are what are highly needed right now.

Mr. Ahmad Hope Special Education Center Grades 9-12
