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

Some of the best memories are a child's first year school experience. End-of-the-year celebrations help students to look back and think about the things that were most important to them. It will also give their parents something to look back on throughout the years as they remember their child's time in preschool. Please help us plan for a fun filled day for all 45 Pre-K students and their families. Our students, teachers, and families look forward to this event every year. Thank you for your anticipated support and generosity!

Our students learn best using hands on activities and the materials suggested below will allow students to learn and socialize in an appropriate setting.

The activities, like visors and building toys, will give them an opportunity to interact with relatives and peers while working collaboratively. Please consider donating to our youngest learners.
