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 special needs students who just need a little bit of extra help. They come to class ready to learn and put forth the effort. As we come to the middle of our school year, we are running low of some much needed supplies. With these supplies, my students will be able to finish out the school year with having the items they need inside the class.

Many of our students are unable to have the items they need for school on a daily basis.

With these supplies, they will not have to worry about that. We still have pencils, but the erasers are completely gone off them. Our whiteboard markers are running low, and we just need to replenish what we have.

This project will get us through the rest of this year and hopefully we will have a little leftover to start next year.
