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 students are a diverse group of English Language Learners. They come from various backgrounds and bring unique perspectives to our classroom. Their enthusiasm for learning is contagious, and I am committed to providing them with the tools and resources they need to succeed.

I am seeking your support to provide essential supplies that will fuel our students' learning and creativity.

Your generous donation will directly impact our ability to create a dynamic and supportive learning environment.

My primary goal is to create a classroom environment that is conducive to learning, collaboration, and student well-being. By providing these essential supplies, I aim to enhance their focus and concentration through healthy snacks. I will expand students' access to technology and digital resources with the computer ink, and promote organization and responsibility through the pencil cases and binders. By investing in our classroom, you are investing in the future of our students. Your contribution will make a tangible difference in their educational journey.
