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 so patient while we wait for the wheels to turn on some of these older computers that we have. Older models with missing keys don't help to engage students in learning.

Having updated tech in the classroom make things run smoothly and the new MacBook Air will do just that

This MacBook will be a great asset to the teacher and the class so we can quickly navigate thru websites and documents with ease. Students will be able to access the new model thru the student center sign-out and will encourage good behavior for the opportunity.
