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

These items, specifically notebooks and pencils, will ensure that every single students in my classes is set up for success in Language Arts class. These basic items are essential for their success from the very first day of school.

Unfortunately, many students face challenges in accessing these supplies due to various financial and personal reasons.

By providing these resources, we can ensure that every student has the tools they need to fully participate in their education and achieve their academic goals. Your support would make a significant difference in the lives of bright young scholars.
