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 am excited to propose a Silent Disco! This will be a fun way to celebrate music and dance and a fantastic opportunity for our students to engage in personal growth and learning.

Studies show movement breaks reinforce learning mastery and what better way to motivate our brains through dance!

This proposal aims to secure funding and materials for silent sound headphones, allowing all students, regardless of language or sensory needs to participate.

We can only make this possible with your support. Please consider donating and helping to foster a sense of community and joy through music and dance. We look forward to celebrating with you.
