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

In our school we believe that every step toward reading fluency should be celebrated! The "Read to Succeed" project aims to encourage and reward our students as they work hard to improve their reading skills. Students will earn high-quality books as they make progress, helping them build a love for reading while reaching new milestones.

These books will not only serve as rewards for their hard work, but also foster a positive community where reading is both fun and fulfilling.

From engaging stories to thought-provoking non-fiction, the books chosen will spark curiosity, build confidence, and motivate them to keep reading.

Your generous contribution will directly impact their academic growth and inspire them to keep reading, one page at a time. Together, we can help our students discover the joy of learning through books, and create a lasting love of reading that will benefit them for years to come.
