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

Our Musical Theater students love to take to ownership of their craft! That includes self-promoting and fundraising for our school performances.

The popcorn machine offers a sustainable solution to further fundraising!

The students (with assistance from their teachers), will pop, distribute and collect funds.

Funds will be used for the theater; costumes, technical equipment, hair/makeup, paint, and other props and scenery.

The greatest part of this project is that it puts the power to the students and allows them to explore their entrepreneurial side while promoting and sharing their talents!
