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

Our school is proud of its inclusive and positive environment and our students are actively involved in activities during and after school.

Providing snacks for all students fosters a sense of inclusivity and helps create a supportive community where everyone's needs are considered and met.

It also minimizes the impact of hunger on the learning experience.

To support student focus and concentration, having nutritious snacks readily available like granola bars, cookies and crackers, fruit cups, or mints (for testing) helps maintain their cognitive function and fuels their energy levels so they can perform at their best.

We would appreciate if you considered and donated to our class so my students have that extra brain power. Thank you for your time and consideration!
