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

In kindergarten, many of my students are getting their first taste of being in elementary school. They are excited about all things school related, playtime, making friends, having a desk of their own, and all the things they will be using for the very first time!

Having basic supplies sets us up for a successful new school year.

I am hopeful to acquire things like whiteboards, pencils, dry erase markers, and crayon boxes for my students to walk into on their first day of school. This will ease the burden on families and jumpstart our year right away!
