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.

Our high school is a small urban school which aims to teach our students experience science in an advanced academic setting. This year we have a big group of juniors taking AP Chemistry which is the second year of a two year course. They worked hard last year and are ready for the college course. Our goal is to trying to prepare them for study in technical fields such as medicine and engineering.

Being a small urban school district, our diverse student population is predominately minority and low income. Because of our demographics, we do not have a tax base from which to fund the development of our advanced academic programs. This is the second year we have offered AP Chemistry, and do not have lab equipment to perform the challenging experiments needed to enhance our students' learning.

We have twenty-nine students signed up for AP Chemistry this year, with most of them juniors that are doubling up in science to better prepare themselves for college. The commitment they have made to work hard has placed a burden on me to make sure that I can get the materials and instruction to prepare them for their test.

The mission of our high school is to prepare our students to be lifelong learners in our diverse, changing world and competitive workplace. With this mission in mind, we are striving to develop a challenging academic program which will prepare our diverse student population for advanced technical study in college. As a small urban school district with a student population of predominately minority and low income families, we do not have opportunities that larger districts enjoy. YOU can make a difference in such an environment by helping our kids to experience science in a fun, engaging, and challenging environment.
