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

Recess is the time of the school day when all students get to relax, socialize with their friends, and have some fun. Our students love to go outside for recess time, but some days Mother Nature or neighborhood conditions keep us inside. On those kinds of days, we want the students to be just as engaged and have just as much fun! That's where your donation comes in!

With your support, we can provide fun and engaging games and activities to our students that will not only make them smile, but also facilitate teamwork, patience, critical thinking, and growth mindset!

Many of the games and activities that we have requested came directly from the students. When we presented the idea of creating a "game cart" for inclement weather days, they could not wait to request their favorite games! By giving the students the power of choice, we know they will be engaged and have so much fun!

Our school has three lunch periods for all our grade levels, PK-5. The requested games will cater to all grade levels! By helping us fund this project, we can provide an environment that is safe, structured, enriching, and enjoyable!
