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

My project is in support for my amazing and very hard working office aides! As some may know, it isn't easy working in a face pace office. I feel that at times, we are all stressed out in here. I also work in a low income area where parents of some of my students are having a rough time making ends meet. My students are constantly asking us for something to eat while their working. There is often times that I give them the snacks that I bring for myself. If I could obtain some food for them I feel like they would perform a lot better when they have their other core classes. In addition, I wanted them to also have some things to do so they can relax. My students are in high school so I thought that having some Legos, coloring books, and a relaxation mat would be a great idea for their mental health on those extra stressful days. Finally, I feel like they should all be rewarded for helping out in their school. I would very much like the stickers and candy so they feel the love appreciation they deserve. Thank you so much for the consideration!
