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

Students have worked hard all school year and now it is time to celebrate their accomplishments. At the end of every school year we like to honor our preschool graduates. In order to make this day more special for them, they will use the cap and gowns as a sign of their hard work and celebrate the end of the school year.

Students using their cap and gown will create a memory that will last a lifetime.

Not only for them but for their parents as well. Students have completed their first year in school!
