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 3rd-5th grade students attend a behavior program and most come from a low-income home. Many have had trauma which impact their social and emotional well being and see our behavior program as a safe haven fir them. Donating white t'shirts to our class to make shirts for out of class activities will help feel like a cohesive unit. This activity will give them something fun and creative to do as well as build their pride and self-esteem.

This act of kindness will make them feel seen, heard and valued.

Thank you for making this possible!

Out of class activities is truly the only time my students feel included and part of the whole school. With your help we can give them an experience to remember.
