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 7th and 8th grade middle schoolers from all over the world. Many of them are going to school in the United States for the very first time. With new art supplies, students will be able to express themselves. With new decor, students will feel welcome and comfortable in my classroom. And finally, with cleaning products, students will work in a clean and germ-free environment.

Help my students create a comfortable, creative, and clean classroom environment to learn and grow in!

These materials would be incredibly helpful in cultivating a classroom environment and community that they deserve.
