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

At my high school, I serve as the Project LIT sponsor. Project LIT is a grassroots literacy movement, and it's mission is to provide students with culturally responsive books, and empower them to be active leaders in their community.

Part of being a Project LIT member is engaging in literacy events in the community.

This year for the second school year in a row, my Project LIT chapter will be collaborating with the Houston Teen Book Con. As a result, all attending authors will be paired with a project LIT member for the day. Students are required to read their author's book so that they are knowledgeable.

As part of their volunteering, I would like to be able to provide them with a book of their choice for one the attending authors. The books listed here will be given directly to my students attending and volunteering at the event.
