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

I'm seeking snacks for my high school CTE Financial Literacy students from low-income Title 1 schools. These snacks, including nutritious options, will fuel their bodies and minds, helping them stay focused and energized for better learning.

My goal is to ensure every student has access to healthy snacks, supporting their well-being and academic success.

These students, despite socioeconomic challenges, are determined to thrive and deserve every opportunity to do so. These snacks will help them stay focused, energized, and ready to learn throughout the day. My goals for this project are to ensure that my students have access to healthy snacks that will support their overall well-being and academic success.
