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

I service 250 students in various grade levels for writing and literacy instruction. These items will greatly help serve my students in their writing assignments and for my early learners, being able to express their knowledge through drawings.

As the school year is coming close to the last quarter, many of my supplies are in need of being replenished.

New pencils, crayons and markers are especially much needed for students' continued participation in producing quality outcomes.

If you could donate to my project in any amount, I would be grateful.
