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

This project is a blend of refresher art supplies for our art integrated program and an important list of supplies we need to build a successful school garden.

Please support our efforts to integrate cultural diversity into the classroom through arts integration and an embedded garden education.

We know what art tools fit best with our curriculum and have a solid grasp on which garden supplies will help make garden building and maintenance seamless. Our students, staff, and families appreciate the time we spend in these endeavors and we are hopeful about our new school year.
