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

What does a rocking before school program emphasizing physical activity for 4th and 5th grade students need? A working microphone would be vital.

Our school is in an urban setting, where our school has been faced with a 17% budget cut while having our state academic performance standards raised considerably.

98% of our students qualify for free or reduced school lunch. Our school has placed an emphasis on Physical Education and Activities for all our children, especially our older ones.

My Project

Since so much our school's operating budget is going to support our academic programs, we need to be able to support Physical Education needs. We need a working microphone to be able to reach all the children when they are busy at play and to enhance instruction.

We are a school that is part of an education complex that shares space: the gym,the library, the cafeteria, the auditorium with another school with a comparable population of students.

We can have a many as 90 students in our combined PE classes. A working microphone is a huge support to our success.
