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

Family Science Night is an amazing event at our school each year. We love inviting families to come see our students share what they have learned in science during the school year. We need help decorating the gym to make it more festive and celebratory. Students will share about local ecosystems, DNA evidence, Moon phases, Eclipses, Climate Change Activism and Physics. It is amazing to see young people sharing their knowledge and engaging with community members and families.

Please help us purchase these decorations for our upcoming family science night!
