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

In our College and Post-Secondary Office, we guide students through their post-secondary planning. This can mean college for some, but not all. We are motivated to help all students prepare for their future, no matter what the path may look like.

Every student deserves the opportunity to invest in their future!

To make planning for the future more accessible for our students, we will use the laptop during small group seminars and post-secondary application completion. College and Career planning can be at their fingertips, which will motivate graduating seniors to be active participants in considering and planning what they want to achieve in their life.
