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 graduating student council members are outstanding. They are hard-working young adults who truly care about the school community. This year they devoted countless hours working on projects that not only made an impact within our school but also in our neighboring community.

This project will provide them with a token of appreciation on behalf of the student council.

One of the items included in this project is the echo dot. This device reads audiobooks and provides new book recommendations. This is a helpful tool for students since they can listen to their books being read aloud while simultaneously taking notes. Students can tell the device to pause, skip chapters, or reread previous ones. This device is also an excellent studying device and will be an asset in each student's studying practice, as they transition from middle school to high school.
