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 have been working extra hard this school year! I would love to their celebrate their efforts by gifting them with fun pencils and book marks to keep the learning going over the summer! But also at the same time, I would love for them to have time to simply relax and just be a kid! The buckets filled with beach/pool activities will be such a blast for them!

Your generous donation will bring EXTRA BIG smiles to my students' faces!

They have all been working especially hard to bring their reading levels up this year! They deserve nothing but the best! Thank you so much for your donation!

Ms. V.
