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

Books are mirrors, windows, and doors into the world—these are mirrors, windows, and doors in which students can see themselves, as well as others who may be different in one way or another.

I am requesting books with diverse authors, illustrators, and/or characters for the school library.

Help us ensure that our school library collection has books like The Last Stand and The Truth About Dragons that represent our entire school community.

Diversity comes in many forms, and we are constantly striving to provide books that celebrate our differences. These books will help our students know from an early age that all people are valued and deserve to have their stories heard.
