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

A MacBook Air is a big investment, but it is an investment in the lives of our students. I want them to have access to this laptop so that they can learn more about science, and math, stay excited about learning, and become future learners. For example, we are now learning all about owls and they can research using the laptop. With your help, we can foster innovation, creativity, and technological proficiency among our youth, ensuring they are well-prepared for the challenges and opportunities of the digital age. Together, let's empower these students to become the tech leaders of tomorrow.

The best part of this project is that it will not only benefit my class for this year but for my students in the future, too!

The MacBook Air will be utilized by students for years to come! Your support will help ensure that students are excited about education through the computer, thus creating lifelong learners. Thank you so much for your support.
