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

This is my 1st year here at our high school located in the heart of South Central LA and I am really motivated to expose my underserved students to the beautiful world that surrounds them. I want to encourage them to make learning and the understanding of different cultures a lifestyle. I believe that if a dream is watered with knowledge and support that it can and will become a reality manifested.

There's nothing like being given a head start in becoming a global citizen and life long learner.

It is my vocation to help bridge the educational gap!

Mr. Langhum Mervyn M Dymally High School Grades 9-12

Celebrate Black teachers and kids! This project supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of students are Black.
