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

Please help the our library grow as a space for students. Your support will provide valuable materials which will create an environment that is comfortable, clean, and showcases community and student agency.

The consumable materials - disinfecting wipes, aromatherapy diffuser, and dusters - will ensure each and every student has a tidy space to explore, read, and build ownership of shared school environments.

The small brooms and dusters will help students notice how many hands make light work. Students will develop proactive social skills and practice ways to work together to keep learning spaces organized.
