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

My students come from a wonderfully diverse environment, most of them high-achieving and very hard workers. They love to excel and push themselves and they're so very inspiring to watch as they create and explore. Some students belong to the wonderful forensic science magnet program, and others to the amazing global studies magnet program. Because the school houses several magnet programs, many of our students are bused in from different areas within our metropolitan area, some from lower socioeconomic regions.

My students are always thinking, always moving.

Over 190 students enter my room on a weekly basis with purposeful intention and a desire to learn. Because of our highly motivated student population, they have consistently scored high on district and state assessments, keeping a prideful tradition of high achievement.

My Project

In an effort to create the ultimate printing center for my art students, the use of a black and white laser printer will be very helpful.

Laser printers, like copy machines, uses toner.

This comes in handy in the art room as a way to transfer images into their art, creating some amazing effects in their work. This would simply be yet another medium for their self expression which also widens their knowledge by exploring non-traditional methods of creating their artwork. The printer will also help alleviate the use of our inkjet model which is mostly used for our color photography.
