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

A well-fed student is a student who will learn and prosper. My students exhibited great resilience during the past two years fighting Covid-19 and the inequalities of life. The Covid-19. The pandemic has caused havoc throughout the educational world. Students, parents, and teachers have all felt the impact

These snacks, like the Rice Krispies Treats, cookies, and crackers, will enable my students to fight the hunger they face throughout the school day and fuel the urge for learning.

These snacks will equal the playing field for my scholars who deal with so much at home, in these streets, and in their community overall.
