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

The materials and supplies that I am requesting for my students will provide nurishment for those who could not get breakfast at home or just need a snack to keep them going. The snacks will be available for any student in need. I just need your help to replenish my classroom pantry.

Many of my students arrive to school hungry.

My goal is to create a caring environment for ALL my students. When a student says they are hungry, I would like to have something to give them.

I love how my students arrive every day to learn. They are funny and thoughtful. With the encouragement and care, they will be successful.
