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

Our school is a STEM-designated campus in which kids are creative and eager to learn.

Please help me give my students special STEM buttons to create awareness and promote our STEM designation.

The materials in this project will help me create special custom buttons for our students to promote the different STEM career fields. When looking online, it's very difficult to find STEM incentives at an affordable price, but with your help, this button-making machine will change that and allow me to get creative when gifting our students.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
