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

Class of 2022 seniors are approaching the finish line. Graduation is around the corner and we want to give them gifts of encouragement. We are looking to provide them with support and hope. We are looking to show them how proud we are of all the hard work they do day after day.

15 weeks until graduation means 15 weeks until they reach their biggest accomplishments.

Social-emotional support is more important now than ever before. Help us give them something special to honor their 2022 diploma goals and ways to journal their next chapter into adulthood.
