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 we are wanting to plan a special graduation celebration for our TK and kindergarten Spanish bilingual class! We would love for our little ones to look and feel special in a graduation cap and gown on their big day, but being a title one school we know that the majority will not have the chance to purchase a C&G for their student. For this reason we are kindly seeking for any generous support that will allow all of our students to be included equally without any feeling left out. Me and my TK/K kiddos will appreciate any donation. Thank you so much.
