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 hard workers; however, not everything comes easy. They push themselves in the classroom on their assignments to make sure they are the best they can be.

We have concrete walls and it's not easy to hang up this work.

With your help, these boards will allow us to hang up and showcase everyone's hard work. The feeling of seeing your hard work makes a big difference and makes them feel proud!

With the addition of these bulletin boards in my classroom, students will easily be able to see their hard work displayed.
