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

Last year, we opened up our very first STEAM lab, where students took their learning to the next level by completing various STEAM and sustainability projects. Since our new theme is "Wild About Learning" and we absolutely love animals, we would like to create a space where students feel welcomed and in a classroom like no other!

Help us make this dream come true for our students!

The stuffed animals and decorations will allow our students to feel welcomed and safe. Our students love STEAM and learning science! They all love coming to school every day!
