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

This is the first year we have an elementary student council. These students are filled with passion and drive that move mountains.

The materials on this proposal will put together a 'thank you' package for each student council member.

They truly deserve this and much more!

I chose a bracelet with an inspirational quote with hopes to give them strength and confidence every time they look at it. I also chose personalized water bottles with an inspirational quote.

During each weekly meeting, they bring new ideas to implement and projects to carry out which make a difference in our entire school community.

Some of the events we have carried out are: pancake and hot coffee at the curb, game night, STEAM night, dress down days, AttenDance, and many more.

This package is a token of appreciation for each student council member!
