Student Designed School Beautification and Spirit-wear Benefits Everyone

Help me give my students supplies to use the full functionality of our new Cricut Venture with extra large vinyl and tools. We plan to beautify our school with creating student designed mascot logos for the walls.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Pinto's classroom raised $345

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

Students will use the heat press with our new Cricut to create spirit wear to promote school inclusion and positivity. The heat press will allow students to create a variety of items such as shirts, hats and tumblers.

Sprit-wear designed by students will increase buy-in throughout the school and promote positive community engagement.

Students will gain 21st century skills by using the new technology, following safety protocols, thinking critically and budgeting for the pricing of items based on costs. Students will use the large vinyl to duplicate their spirit wear designs as wall displays to beautify the school and unify our school.
