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

Many students come to school without basic school supplies. With donations for basic supplies such as pencils, expo markers, and ink my students can walk into class knowing that the supplies they need to be successful will be provided.

Having basic supplies as well as materials ( computter mice, paper, laminating pouches, hand sanitizer) needed to keep our classroom organized and sanitized will allow our students to start the year off focused and ready to learn.

Being able to learn with the proper supplies is tremendous for students who come from less than ideal backgrounds. The supplies this project will give my students will help them focus on learning by taking away the worry of materials.
