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 project is all about creating a classroom environment where students can thrive. The items we’re requesting will help us stay organized, keep materials durable and accessible, and make learning more interactive. For example, having tools to laminate materials and organize handouts means my students will always have resources at their fingertips, and we can reuse them for years to come. Supplies like fresh pencils, paper, and ink ensure that daily activities run smoothly without interruptions. Even small touches, like creating a clean and welcoming classroom space, can make a big difference in how focused and comfortable my students feel each day.

What makes my students special is their enthusiasm and determination to grow.

They come to class ready to learn, but they do so much better when the environment supports their needs. My goal is to build a space that’s organized, engaging, and calm—where materials are easy to access and every student has what they need to succeed. With your support, we can make learning more hands-on, organized, and enjoyable for everyone. Every little bit helps us get closer to that goal!
