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 have an active group of 3rd graders. They love learning and growing. I love to throw in art to keep them motivated and to take a break from the intense work that we engage in.

Thank you for considering helping us with basic art supplies.

We are a class family. We enjoy decorating our door as a way of inspiring those that walk by. Recently, we haven't had the needed supplies to get the job done. We have been borrowing and searching for the needed supplies. It will be wonderful to restock and have what we need. Thank you for considering this request!
