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

I teach the BEST students in the world (from all over the world) in Elmhurst, Queens. My students have grown so much this year in so many ways, and I'm very proud of their progress.

This stem-filled summer activity bag would provide 75 young scholars with multiple fun opportunities to pique their curiosity and continue their learning all summer long!

Having their own modeling clay, stem building toys, bubbles, and a magnifying glass- plus cool sunglasses- will brighten their day and keep them engaged during the long summer break.

Your support means so much to me- and to my 75 families! Thank you in advance for your generosity and kindness to my bright and brilliant students!
