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

This year I began teaching in a new school. When I arrived, I was astonished by the lack of supplies I was provided with to help my students learn. From pencils, to markers, to colored ink and paper, I was lacking the basic supplies I was used to having in my classroom.

Each day my fourth graders work incredibly hard to be their very best, but are lacking the basic school supplies to help them learn.

Please consider supporting our classroom so that we can provide students with the best education possible!
