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

The students at our school are eager learners looking to find a safe and secure place to do so. However, Hurricane Irma caused a disruption in their learning environment and their ability to feel safe.

Our school was heavily affected by Hurricane Irma.

Many rooms were left with water intrusion and damage that has made getting back to normal life difficult. I work in a Title 1 school where over 90% of our students are on free or reduced lunch. Our school is located in the heart of one of the lowest socio-economic neighborhoods where many parents do not even speak English. Our students are in need of once again feeling secure and safe in their learning environment. Our students need to know that there are people willing to help and make a difference in their lives.

My Project

Due to the damage of Hurricane Irma, my students suffered a lot of time lost in being unable to be back in a safe learning environment. My students have not had proper access to materials or learning equipment and as a result have fallen behind.

With this HP desktop I can now provide my students with learning opportunities to be able to access programs such as Accelerated Reader, Imagine Learning and Myon that will help bridge the gap that was lost in being out of school.

This desktop will allow my students first rate access to using these programs that are designed to improve their language skills. This desktop will also allow for more rotations within my classroom so that everyone has an exciting opportunity to learn. My students come to school to learn and feel safe. It is very important that we do as much as possible to get their lives and priorities back in order. By providing my students with a new means of learning they will begin to feel a sense of normalcy that might help them to catch up and essentially become lifelong learners in spite of any tragedies that may come their way.
