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

Many of my students face personal difficulties—some are teen parents, while others have experienced setbacks in their education—yet these experiences have made them more resilient and adaptable. They bring creativity and strong self-motivation to their studies, as they explore alternative paths to success. My students thrive in environments that offer personalized learning and support, and their determination to overcome obstacles truly sets them apart.

This project seeks snacks and drink supplies to foster a warm and inviting classroom environment by offering coffee and breakfast supplies, helping students begin their day on a positive note.

It will promote a sense of community and relaxation, helping students feel more comfortable, focused, and engaged in deeper learning. The simple routine of having coffee, tea, or hot chocolate will offer a refreshing break, keeping them energized and ready to learn.
