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

Being the club advisor to our Girl Chat club is one of the highlights to my school year! These students go above and beyond for one another and our school community as a whole. These supplies will provide club members with the essential items they need to conduct meetings, plan activities and recruit new members. As a Title I school, our students do not always have the tools they need in order to be successful, however with this support they will be able to participate in this club without the financial burden of having to buy supplies.
