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 love how resilient and hardworking my students are, especially during the challenges of state testing. They put in their best effort every day, and I want to ensure they have the energy and focus needed to do their best.

The snacks I’m requesting—Cheez-Its, gummies, granola bars, chips, and more—will provide my students with a boost of energy to stay engaged during long testing sessions.

A small snack can make a big difference in their concentration and motivation.

My students are incredible individuals with unique learning needs, and they thrive when they feel supported. Providing them with brain-boosting snacks will help them stay focused and confident while showing what they’ve learned. Thank you for considering our classroom!
