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 students are amazing! The are very creative, enthusiastic, and curious people. My students come from a title one school and I feel they all have potential to be successful given all the right tools.

This project will provide them with basic supplies for our collaborative activities and our Geometry explorations.

This project will also provide students with snacks while they work after school during tutoring sessions.

In addition, they will also be able to stay safe with tissues, hand sanitizer, Clorox wipes, and lysol during the return to school in the aftermath of the pandemic.
