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

Our school is a transfer school that serves students who are under credited and over the average age for their grades. They are at high risk of not completing their high school educations. They have not been successful in traditional classrooms and need the chance to develop job skills. These students have great work ethics and are willing to put in the effort to succeed.

With your help, our students can learn building trades skills that they will use to establish fulfilling and lucrative careers.

My Project

With the items listed, Q.A. can start a building trades program. Most of our students have left other schools in search of a place in which they can learn the skills they need to succeed in today's highly competitive job market. Without learning marketable skills, these young people will go into the world of work without the ability to provide for themselves, forcing them to depend on the system for assistance. These tools (Safety Glasses, Wrench Set, Cordless Impact Driver, Portable Table Saw, Chop Saw, and other tools) will be the basis of the students' learning experiences together with classroom discussions directed by a certified building trades teacher. They will receive both educational theory instruction as well as hands on experience.
