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 helped to grow a small robotics program of just 5 students into a group of over 20 dedicated and inspiring students! As a result, we are in need of more equipment to ensure all students have access to develop their coding and engineering design skills. By contributing to our project, you are helping students develop skills in coding and engineering; skills that are essential in today's modern age.

The students that are a part of robotics come from a variety of diverse backgrounds, each bringing their own unique experiences to the table.

Unfortunately, most students do not have access to internet or other essentials at home, thus a majority of their engagement with coding and engineering takes place at school. These laptops and computer mice will provide my students with the essential tools to continue to learn and grow in the world of technology.
