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

We will use these decorations and tools to keep our new school libraries a fun and welcoming place to learn. I plan to use these bulletin board borders and all of the different posters in 3 brand new library spaces throughout the school year. Character stuffed animals will make students feel welcome and comfortable visiting the library. They are a great motivational tool to make reading more fun for students as well!

Your help with funding these materials will help students feel safe and welcome in each library!

They will look forward to library visits for years to come!
