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

Snacks will directly support student engagement and learning during our financial literacy fundraiser. Providing nutritious and appealing snacks will:

Increase energy levels: Well-nourished students can focus better and participate more actively in learning activities.

Boost morale: A positive snack break can improve students' mood and create a more enjoyable learning environment.

Facilitate social interaction: Sharing snacks can foster teamwork and camaraderie among students.

Our primary goal for this project is to enhance our students' financial literacy knowledge and skills. We aim to:

Teach students about budgeting, saving, and investing.

Develop critical thinking and problem-solving abilities related to financial decision-making.

Prepare students for financial success in their personal and professional lives.

Our students are eager learners who are passionate about making a positive impact on their community. They are:

Curious and inquisitive: They ask thoughtful questions and seek to understand the world around them.

Collaborative and supportive: They work well together and encourage each other's success.

Committed to personal growth: They strive to develop their skills and knowledge to reach their full potential.
