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

Each year we look for ways to celebrate the 100th Day of School. It is so important to celebrate the academic achievement of students to help them stay motivated. Last year we settled on a theme, "100 Days Brighter" and held a glow party. The students all wore neon clothes, and they loved celebrating! However, we didn't really have any supplies to make the party special. I am trying to procure items that can be used annually to celebrate the 100th Day of School. The items I would like to obtain are black lights, posters and signs, balloons, and storage bins so that I can keep the items in good condition for years to come.

My school is a Title 1 school, so many of our families live below the poverty line.

We cannot ask families to give money towards extra celebrations and events. Furthermore, our budget is already stretched very thin to cover the essentials. This is why I turn to the Donors Choose community to help fund all of the fun extras that my students deserve. You have always come through for our school with your generosity. Thank you!
