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

These items that I am requesting will help my students write more and have the pencils and whole punchers that they need in order to keep papers in order in their binders. Please help my students have the supplies that they need in order to complete their work. The students in this area cannot all afford to contribute to the classroom supply needs. I have over 170 students all learning Spanish, and some of them are native Spanish speakers in a native Spanish speakers class who also cannot afford to contribute to classroom supplies.
