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

Students learn many life lessons in kindergarten. One of them is organization. An organized workplace will help them learn how to care for their materials and track where they belong. Our scholars are currently using seat sacks that have seen better days. Many of them are ripped and soiled beyond repair.

They have lasted us over five years, and we have taken good care of them.

However, the scholars deserve to have a clear and fresh start this year. These seat sacks will hold their folders, whiteboards, and pencil pouches.

The pencil pouches will hold everything a kindergarten would need to be successful:

- pencil

-glue stick

-crayons

These pencil pouches will make it more individualized and easier for scholars to keep track of their materials.

We are asking for your help in starting the year our right for our 90 kindergarten scholars. This donation will also help future scholars because we plan on reusing the materials. Thank you for your help and contribution to our project!
