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

This is the first year our cheer program has grown to an incredible 50 athletes — so big, we now have two cheer locker rooms! These spaces are where our cheerleaders start their day, leaving their bags in the morning, getting ready for class, pep rallies, games, and school events.

Fifty athletes, two rooms, and endless school spirit — now we just need the space to match our pride.

With so many team members, we need storage, seating, and organization so each cheerleader has a comfortable space to prepare, feel confident, and build the school spirit they share with our entire community.

By improving our locker rooms, we’re giving our athletes more than a place to get ready — we’re giving them a home base where they can encourage one another, prepare for performances, and represent our school with pride.
