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

Being organized, prepared, and ready are the keys to success. These supplies will have all the students ready to learn on the first day of school.

Students will have folders to keep their homework assignments and papers that go home to parents secured in their individual homework folders.

Parents and students can keep track of their student's classwork and homework. With every student having the same materials ready on day one, every student can be successful and have a head start! It's always exciting to prepare for new beginnings.
