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

We are building are college and career office for our high school students to prepare and plan for their future. Our space is small. We make the most of it by accessing more technology for them to complete college & career applications. We will use this laptops during group sessions to research and plan for after high school applications.

Class of 2024 have started dreaming what is next.

Now we plan for that dream, we plan and prepare for the career and the colleges that will push them to reach their goals.

In my office space I want them to stay connected and feel supported in this process. While we work side by side on individual laptops. Side by side we can ask and motivate each other to finish our tasks.
