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

As a school counselor, I strive to create a nurturing environment where student feels valued and empowered. I am seeking your support to provide essential resources that will enhance their emotional well-being and personal growth.

This project aims to create a safe and calming environment for underprivileged students by providing essential materials such as sensory tools, and calming visuals.

These resources will help students manage stress and anxiety, ultimately enhancing their emotional well-being and academic performance. By fostering a supportive atmosphere, we aim to empower students to thrive both socially and academically, ensuring they have the tools needed for success.

This initiative will not only enhance students' emotional well-being but also foster resilience, helping them navigate challenges more effectively. With these resources, we hope to empower students to feel secure and supported, ultimately contributing to their overall success in school and beyond.
