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

Make our classroom feel like home. Flexible seating will transform our small classroom into a welcoming, home-like space where students can feel comfortable, engaged, and ready to learn. It gives them the freedom to explore new places to work, collaborate, and thrive beyond their desks.

With your help, I can purchase items like stools and cushions to transform our space into an environment where students feel empowered to learn.

Any contribution will make a big difference in creating a welcoming and dynamic classroom for my students.

Your support will help us create a dynamic learning environment where every student can thrive. Any donation, big or small, will bring us closer to this goal. Thank you for helping my students succeed!
