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

Please help us stock our TK-5th grade STEAM Lab! Our students have incredible minds and ideas for solutions to real world problems. Your support will provide more meaningful pathways into STEM careers! These materials will not only enhance their learning, but engage them in science, technology, engineering, art, and math in new ways. Our current STEM Lab is comprised of old furniture that other classrooms discarded. Our students deserve a quality and updated space to fully engage in all that STEM has to offer!

Providing students with materials to bring their innovations to life inspires them to keep creating, engineering, and solving problems!

This all starts with engagement, and having current materials to get them excited about the world and see their own potential within these spaces! I can't wait to see what our students will accomplish with these materials. Thank you for supporting meaningful pathways into STEM!
