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

It’s mid year and that means we are short on pencils & lamination sheets!

Any help restocking the pencil jar is greatly appreciated.

Our title one kiddos make it to school but don’t always have the tools they need to complete work. Pencils are a major need… this by far is the item I am asked for the most. How can we say no to needing a pencil?

We laminate posters created by the students to use as reference material to ensure student success. Lamination helps keep their study supplies clean while creating!
