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

At our school, we have a diverse and passionate group of students who are eager to learn and explore the world around them. We love their creativity, curiosity, and willingness to take risks in their learning. What makes our students special is their resilience and perseverance, even in the face of challenges.

However, our students often face significant barriers to their learning, including a lack of basic classroom supplies.

The supplies we are requesting - paper storage, copy paper, markers, erasers, expo markers, pencils, and headphones - may seem small, but they will make a significant difference in our students' ability to engage with their learning.

With these supplies, we will be able to create more interactive and engaging lessons that allow our students to express themselves and showcase their talents. The copy paper and markers will be used for students to create posters and presentations, while the pencils and erasers will be used for note-taking and problem-solving. The headphones will be used to allow our students to participate in online learning and listen to audio resources, enhancing their ability to learn and communicate.

By providing our students with these basic supplies, we can help them reach their full potential and achieve their goals. Our students will have access to the materials they need to express themselves and engage with their learning in a way that is meaningful to them. Thank you for considering a donation to support our students!
