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 need special supplies and materials for their special needs. This is a special day class with students from kindergarten to 2nd grade. The special abilities in this class vary from specific learning disabilities, autism, and other health impairments. The supplies we receive will help our class succeed academically and help them make social connections with their peers. Our class needs special supplies such as headphones for our hard-of-hearing students, kinesthetic materials for our students with occupational therapy needs, and larger print materials for our vision-impaired students. Please help support our special population.
