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

At our Middle School, we are dedicated to providing a nurturing and inclusive learning environment for all our students. Our middle school special education students benefit immensely from hands-on projects and interactive activities that enhance their learning experiences. However, to ensure these activities are as effective and engaging as possible, we are in need of additional supplies.

These supplies will be used for a variety of projects and activities that are integral to our special education curriculum.

We are a smaller group of students, separate and away from the other classes and are limited on supplies. These donations will allow us to participate in science activities, create customized learning experiences tailored to each student's unique needs, support their individual goals, and foster a more interactive and dynamic classroom environment.

By donating these materials, you will be directly contributing to the enrichment of our students' educational journey and helping them engage in activities that are vital for their development. We deeply appreciate any support you can offer and are grateful for your commitment to making a difference in the lives of our students.
