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 diverse, enthusiastic, and love to learn new things! However, it is incredibly difficult for children to learn when their bellies are grumbling for some food. Our school is a Title I school with over 85% of students coming from low-income families. Sadly, some days my students may forget or may be unable to eat breakfast. When this happens, it can be incredibly difficult for them to stay focused on a lesson when all they can think about is food. These snacks will be readily available for any student who may become too hungry to concentrate.

No child should ever go hungry, so please help us keep our students fed and nourished!
