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 preparing for our school’s National History Day event—an exciting showcase where they become historians, dive deep into meaningful topics, and bring history to life through creative and thoughtful projects.

To help them succeed, I’m requesting classroom supplies like markers, construction paper, pencils, and glue sticks.

These materials will allow students to stay organized, express their creativity, and build high-quality projects that reflect their research and hard work.

Hosting National History Day at our school makes this even more special. Families, staff, and fellow students will come together to celebrate each student’s work. Your support will help every child participate fully, feel confident in what they’ve created, and proudly present their learning to the community. Thank you for supporting these young historians as they explore the past—and discover the power of their voices!
