Celebrating 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.
Give this project a boost!
A chain reaction of support starts with one share.
We are a Pre K-5th grade public elementary school with over 520 students from varied backgrounds and diverse needs. We are a Title l school with at least 85% of our students on free and reduced-price lunch. The majority of our students are from low socioeconomic families, in a community still recovering from effects of Hurricane Harvey. Many students do not have access to technology in the home. Our students are bright and love new challenges. They are always ready and excited to learn new things and look forward to working with technology.
My Project
In 2017, our community was hit by Hurricane Harvey. Many student's homes were damaged and many of our families were displaced because of the hurricane.
My students have seen first hand the destruction of Mother Nature and experienced the need for food, clothing, and shelter in a disaster situation.
As the school's librarian, I want to make those out of classroom experiences relevant to what our students are learning. Having the EiE Engineering Air Drop Kit will help my kids develop creative and better problem solving solutions to help their community in an emergency situation while engaging student in the Science curriculum.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
