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

It's a new school year and new season for our competitive engineering program. With all the teams we are offering this year we need more tools for all of the build teams. This variety of tools will help our students as they build and modify what they have envisioned. Having a clean work environment for our students to build and manufacture their STEM projects and competition robots is very important. We are looking for these high CFM vacuums to handle any clean our manufacturing shop has to deal with.

Students in our competitive engineering program have applied engineering, science, math, and technology to solve complex, open-ended problems in a real-world context, all while developing highly transferable skills in collaboration, communication, and critical thinking, which are relevant for STEM careers.

They will work as a team, meeting challenges creatively and collaboratively, all while using science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) related skills. Please help provide resources that can help us become the next generation of STEM professionals. We would be actively promoting STEM within our community starting in our own high school now with the ability to document our activities and progress.
