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

Winter is here and with winter, the cold and flu season begins. We are about to come back from winter break and I already have two parents that are informing me that their child might not be in on Monday because they are sick with the flu.

In order for students to learn they need to be in school, and if they are sick they will lose learning time.

The materials that I am requesting will help my students stay healthy during this flu and cold season. Our classroom needs disinfecting wipes to kill germs that cause the flu. We also need hand soap, tissues, face masks, lotion, and chapsticks to help us stay healthy during the winter season. We need to stay healthy in order to learn.

Thank you so much for your kindness, donation, and dedication to public education.
