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

As an intervention specialist for English Language Learners, I help students with disabilities chart their path for life after high school. Unfortunately, most career exploration materials are geared toward grade-level native English speakers, not newcomers to the country. To help them transition to adulthood, I need career exploration and academic intervention tools at their level.

My students need English texts and math materials that help them grow their skills and develop their knowledge of the world of work.

With this project, you can help me give my students the tools and texts that will expand their academic and vocational horizons.
