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

With new equipment, students can use more advanced engineering fields and methods to create more creative and ambitious STEM projects to learn from. As students' projects get more ambitious, our program size grows. We need additional tools so students can be efficient with their limited to time assemble their competitive robots quickly. By having more resources, we will be able to provide them all with an in-depth learning experience.

We will work as a team, meeting challenges creatively and collaboratively, all while using STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) related skills.

This includes the leadership, problem-solving, and everyday life skills that will prepare them for their futures. Please help provide us with these tools so that my students become the next generation of STEM professionals. We would be actively promoting STEM within our community starting in our high school. At the end of the day, it will be more than building robots, and more than building our skills, it will be about sharing our story. Sharing what we are capable of doing and allowing us to inspire others in our community that by working together, we solve problems and build great things!
