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 Project

In our classroom, technology is a powerful tool that helps engage students and supports their learning across all subjects. We currently have a set of Chromebooks and tablets, but our students often struggle with keeping them charged and ready to use throughout the day. To ensure they have access to the tools they need for a successful educational experience, we are requesting a charging station cart to keep our devices organized and powered.

The charging station cart will provide a centralized place to store and charge the devices securely, preventing the risk of losing or damaging equipment.

This will allow our students to seamlessly integrate technology into their lessons, whether they are conducting research, completing assignments, or exploring interactive learning apps.

Many of our students come from underfunded backgrounds, and access to technology is one of the greatest opportunities we can provide them for academic success. Technology opens up a world of resources and learning experiences that our students would otherwise not have access to. However, without a reliable charging system, we risk the devices running out of power during critical learning moments, leaving students frustrated and disengaged.

By providing this charging station cart, you will be giving our students the tools they need to succeed in an increasingly digital world. Your support will make a meaningful difference in their educational experience, and we are incredibly grateful for any contribution to help us make this vision a reality. Thank you for helping to empower our learners!
