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

Support my fourth-grade classroom and help fuel my students' love for learning! My classroom will be filled with curiosity and creativity, where every day is filled with exciting discoveries. This is my first year teaching as I have previously been a student teacher and substitute. I love students' energy and eargerness to explore new ideas. Every single one of them brings something special to our classroom community.

Your generous donations will directly impact their educational journey by providing essential materials and resources that will inspire their growth and development.

Because I am a first year teacher and starting with nothing, each of the items I am requesting will help tremendouly to make a difference in their learning. I strive to empower these young minds to reach for the stars and make their learning experience truly extraordinary!
