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

This year a couple of my colleagues and I were given the opportunity to start a club for Latino students. At our first meeting, students brought different ideas on how they, as a club, can leave their mark here at our school. The students of the club bring a level of energy, excitement, compassion, value and joy. Each individual student represents a different culture but together they represent a tribe of true Latino spirit.

The students decided, what better way to leave a mark than to create a mural.

One that represented the first Latino club of our school for years to come. This mark will represent the Latino culture that our club students are proud to share with others.

With the projector, paint, and all the materials donated to the Student Organization of Latinos (SOL), we plan on creating a Latino inspired mural. The mural will include symbols of our culture that resonate with all 21 Spanish speaking countries.
