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

My 4th and 5th grade students are my daily motivation. As a Breast Cancer survivor, I cherish every opportunity I have to become healthy and to be their teacher.

We will soon be going home for a Summer break, and I would love to send them off with some special gifts to commemorate our year!

These past years have been very difficult ones for students, teachers and parents. We have worked so hard and a GLOW gift with bubbles, snacks and slime, will send them off to eat, wear and enjoy their Summer! Help us to enjoy summer!
