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

My students and their families come to school with an open mind to learn and interact with their friends. They are eager to demonstrate what they learn and share their experiences with each other. In the same way, they are eager to learn academic subjects, they are also eager to do their best in P.E. and in recess. As they grow their body changes and they become self-conscience about this, Having access to hygiene products may help their self-esteem and help them focus in class and have better relationships with peers. Students will be able to pick up products at the Counselor's office as needed.

Thank you in advance for assisting with this project because it will help our students take better care of their hygiene.
