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

I teach a class of learners who have Autism at the elementary level. Our students are learning functional skills necessary to be successful at school and in their day to day lives. We have several students still learning safety at school. Our classroom is in need of more support to ensure safety for both students and staff.

This project will provide necessary tools to create a safe classroom environment for all.

I am asking for basic items, such as door stops and cabinet locks, to fulfill our needs and to keep our students safe. Thank you for your contributions to our classroom!
