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

Our current classroom materials, like the weighted vests and noise reducing earmuffs, are significantly outdated and show signs of wear and tear, which hampers the effectiveness of our teaching efforts. Additionally, the supply of sensory toys, crucial for students with sensory processing disorders, is insufficient and in poor condition. These tools are essential for helping students manage their sensory needs, reducing anxiety, and improving concentration and behavior. Securing funding for this project will enable us to provide our students with the up-to-date materials and sensory tools they need to thrive academically and emotionally. Your support will help us create a more effective and supportive learning environment, ultimately contributing to the success and well-being of our students.
