Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

My Project

Thanks to your awesome support, we're about to give our students something truly special: digital cameras that will unlock a world of creative and hands-on learning experiences. Now, picture this: students making stop-motion videos to show the parts of a cell, explaining each part’s function in their own words. They won't just be diving deeper into biology, but they'll also be honing their communication skills as they narrate and bring their projects to life.

These cameras will let students snapshots of school moments like assemblies and sports games for our yearbook.

This gives them a taste of real-world storytelling and event coverage. It’s a unique chance for them to learn technical skills, feel responsible for capturing memories, and take pride in creating something meaningful for our school community.
