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

Our High School’s Senior Decision Day is a day to celebrate all the accomplishments the seniors have made in high school and their decision to continue into a new path, whether that be college, the military, or the workforce. At this celebration, they will play games, have lunch, and reflect on all they have done with all their classmates.

Our seniors have achieved so much in their time at our school and we hope to keep that ball rolling by giving them supplies to succeed in their future!

We want to celebrate all of our ambitious seniors by giving them prizes such as an iPad, laptops, headphones, or speakers to help them succeed in any path they choose to go on.

At the end of the celebration, we will raffle off these prizes along with other donations. The seniors will be very thankful for all the support that they receive from their friends, family, and community! Ultimately, we hope students will be able to have fun and get excited about their upcoming adventures.
