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 any classroom, basic supplies like tissues, paper towels, and hand soap are essential for maintaining a clean, healthy, and productive learning environment. Students frequently face colds, allergies, or minor spills, and having tissues readily available helps prevent distractions and the spread of germs. Paper towels allow for quick cleanups, fostering personal responsibility and keeping the classroom tidy. Hand soap is crucial for hygiene, reducing illness and absenteeism.

Without these necessities, students may struggle to focus on learning.

Providing these simple yet vital items ensures a comfortable and safe space where students can thrive academically and socially
