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

My students are creative, thoughtful and full of questions! They absolutely love hands-on, active, engaging projects and challenges that allow them to think outside the box to find solutions! They come to school each day ready to try new things and take brave chances in order to grow both personally and academically. Truly, they are my inspiration!

My students deserve the ability to have access to modern technology.

School exposes my students to experiences and knowledge that their home life cannot always provide. Many of the students in my classroom have difficulty completing assignments at home because they lack the technology they need.

Our school is nestled in the heart of South Los Angeles. We are a Title I school with a very high level of poverty in our community.

Each child in my classroom absolutely loves learning, although the method and environment in which they learn best vary greatly. We incorporate a variety of learning strategies, group work, and learning options to ensure that each student's needs are met. They are truly an incredible group, and deserve to be active participants in the tech world.

My Project

Your donation towards these laptop computers for our class would be greatly appreciated and, I guarantee, used on a daily basis. Students will be able to write at their desk and save their work. The access to more modern technology, on a daily basis, will let them become more computer literate, and college and career ready!

By donating to this project, you will give my students an advantage.

By helping to provide the new laptops in the classroom, you will have helped level the playing field; allowing students who do not have access to such technology at home a chance to have such at school. Thank you.
