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 Students

Our school is a product of and exists to serve the students of various neighborhoods. The school has a very diverse background of students from the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, Africa, and other Latin countries. We opened in 2006 as the very first charter school in our district. Our school was founded by a team of local educators who came together with the specific intent to provide the community they served and loved with an excellent educational option. We are an independent public charter school.

My Project

Dance students will have these materials to help in class.

We have yoga in Dance class to help students relax from stress such as school work, life, and getting into college.

Also, having a clothing rack will help with the musical performance. This will help organize the backstage for dancers; it will be easier to grab the costumes. Also, having yoga hooks will help students take yoga mats with easier movement. Especially when the dance students need to work out and flex their muscles. Having the pants will help when doing dance performances in different eras such as the 80's and 90's.
