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 love my students so much!!

The classroom essentials I’m requesting, folders, tissues, tape, pencils, and a stapler, might seem simple, but they make a big difference in our day-to-day learning.

Folders will help my students stay organized with their health journals and reflection packets. Tissues are a must, especially during the cold season, so students can stay comfortable and cared for. Tape and staplers help keep materials together and projects looking great, while pencils ensure that every student can participate, take notes, and complete assignments.

These supplies help create a safe, functional, and supportive space where students can focus on learning, not on what they’re missing. Thank you for considering supporting us!
