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

I teach in the same high school where I was a student myself a decade ago. I know from first-hand experience the struggles many of my students face. Our community is beautiful because of its diversity, however, a huge challenge is the poverty that is also present.

I can sincerely say I admire every single one of my students because, despite the personal challenges many of them have at home, they know that in my classroom they are safe.

I promise my students that although I may not be able to solve all their issues, I can provide them with a classroom that is a caring and a learning environment for them.

My Project

Many of my students challenge submitting their school work because they do not have a printer at home. Also, it is not uncommon to have our school printer out of service. This issue is faced by many students almost on a weekly basis. Moreover, when the school printer works, it only prints in black/white and students have to spend additional time coloring their images.

I teach in a Title I school where having access to pencils and highlighters is a struggle.

My students do many hands-on projects that require them to have access to a computer and a printer for their projects.
