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

Hello Everyone!

Another new school year, which means new changes.

I have been moved to a small closet-like office space located on the second floor. These buildings start to get hot once it is about 70-75 degrees outside, plus the ventilation in such tight corners is poor. I am prone to heavy nosebleeds and suffer from hypertension. I am looking to get some circulatiing air in the room and get some cool air moving since there are no windows. I work as an interventionist and work with small groups of 4-5, so we are looking to have a comfortable and clean environment to thrive in. When it is too hot it can hinder the amount of time the students can stay motivated and focused. It would be great to get some cleaning supplies to keep this space clean and dust free. In addition to I would like to get the dewey scent out of this space with these supplies.
