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

As a special education teacher, I’m reaching out for support to help fund our summer school program for students with special needs, many of whom are on the autism spectrum. Our goal is to create a fun, engaging, and supportive environment that blends academics with sensory and social-emotional learning.

To do this, we’re seeking donations for essential materials including reading and math workbooks to keep academic skills strong, and art supplies like crayons, chalk, sun catchers, and bracelet-making kits to encourage creativity and fine motor development.

We also need tactile learning tools such as Magna-Tiles to support hands-on learning, and behavior management rewards to help reinforce positive behaviors.

Every contribution helps us provide a meaningful and memorable summer experience for our incredible students. Thank you for supporting our classroom!
