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

As we are now on a semester schedule, January 23rd will be a day of transition, the only break between the semesters. These materials will be used for some of our arts and crafts projects. For example, students may be painting tote bags, creating calming jars or tie dying their own keepsake shirt, in addition to painting, drawing, and other artistic mediums.

We are supporting students in taking care of their mental health, discovering their passions and helping them love learning again.

Students will have a day to refresh and reset for our a second semester of learning!

Mrs. Gentile Central High School Grades 9-12
