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

Please help start the school year with brand-new school supplies! Each year my students receive a pencil box full of supplies to get them started with their first year of school! We use the supplies daily, multiple times throughout the day!

As the school year progresses, supplies get lost and get used.

I am happy to provide my students with the tools they need to be successful! That means I am constantly replenishing my supplies! Please help if you can with these supplies, including crayons, whiteboards, and erasers that make learning easier and fun!

My future students and I thank you from the bottom of our hearts!
