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 Students

My students have a strong desire to learn both languages (Spanish and English) in our Dual Language class. They are hardworking students that always have a positive attitude towards learning! My students come from low economic backgrounds and most of their parents are not working right now due to COVID.

My students deserve the best and that's why it's so important for me to keep creating a warm and safe learning environment.

My Project

I would like my students to have pencils, erasers, folders, highlighters in order to start the year strongly and fully prepared. My student's families have been affected tremendously due to COVID. That's why I would appreciate your support.

Basic supplies, and cleaning supplies so we can remain healthy and continue our education.

Any donations to this project will help give my students a great start to the beginning of the school. These supplies will aide them in their daily activities, which will increase productivity in and outside of the classroom. Having these materials will be a great help to all of my students. Thanks for helping to bring them to our classroom!
