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

For most of my 3 and 4 year olds, this is their first school experience. They come into my classroom to learn, play, laugh and grow. Young children learn through play and with your help we can provide this hands on learning opportunity for them.

Please help me create a more fun and inviting music center for my kids.

We also can benefit from more outdoor activities such as a parachute, balls, chalk, and bubbles. Please keep us in mink and Thank you very very much for your generous contributions!
