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

Hello everyone,

This year we are focusing on starting a high school esports program to give students an outlet that they are comfortable with here at school.

Students have been seeking a space where they can hang out during lunch and afterschool. The students have also have reached out because they know that I have run game club.

I have run successful esports program at previous high schools, where students learn leadership qualities, how to work in a team, playing with other teams, scheduling matches, and discussing game strategy. I am hoping that they can grow and learn these skills from game club. Students meet once a week to discuss strategy, matches, and any information with the adults and their teammates. The matches are once a week for each game they play(depending on how many games they play).

Help us have an environment where our students can grow and play.

Ms. Soto High School of Arts & Technology Grades 9-12
