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

I am looking for various items for my scholars this year. We are in need of snacks, headphones, and other supplies for the school year.

I am a teacher at a Title 1 school and while scholars are fed two times each day (breakfast and lunch), scholars are in need of a little extra before going home and access to food to curb their hunger.

We also are in need of headphones as we are using a lot of technology resources and not all scholars are able to bring in headphones. I would love to have headphones for scholars to ensure that they are able to use all technology resources without having to struggle to hear the volume.

I am also looking for, if possible, extra supplies for the school year. I am giving flex a try for the first time this year and are looking for a few stools to give it a try. I have read articles that flex seating helps give students a choice of how to receive information and switch up their day to day seating.

Anything helps and I am so grateful for any donations!
