Help me give my students items to create an Under the Sea trunk or treat event.

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 are 20 of the sweetest, most hardworking, and most curious pre-kindergarten children you will ever meet. They all have the most beautiful smiles and the biggest dreams.

We are a Title I school that prides itself on making sure that each and every one of our precious students knows they can be successful.

All of our children are eligible to participate in the free lunch and breakfast programs. My students are kind-hearted and are determined to do their very best every single day.

I am requesting a variety of items such as tablecloths, a fishing net, and undersea balloons to decorate our class trunk or treat. Having a magical Under the Sea-themed trunk will give our students pride. The Trunk or Treat gives our students a safe place to trick or treat. The students will also dress up as sea creatures and pass out candy, which will boost their self-esteem and bring our community together.
