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

Students need the ability to express themselves.

Your Donation will give my students a chance to express themselves!

With your help, my students will have the supplies they need in order to create new art pieces! "Colored pencils are capable of rendering art styles that are expressive and abstract, or detailed and photorealistic." I believe this is an excellent way for students to have an opportunity to express themselves. Some students look forward to their Art class because it's the only break time they have from their AP, Gifted, Dual Enrollment, and Core classes.
