All of my students come from a Latino/Hispanic background. For many of them their fist language is Spanish and unfortunately they are living within the poverty guidelines. However, they are extremely enthusiastic about coming to school everyday and learning new things. They're in need of the experiences that every child deserves, hence why we are asking for a more abundant and appropriate science center. A lot of our students want to be scientists and use what we have on a daily basis.
