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

This academic school year has been tough. The group of 9th graders this year were the Covid era students who missed the beginning of middle school concepts due to the virus. Closing the gaps have been extremely challenging yet rewarding. We are in need of help to showcase academic growth beyond just the normal certificates. These medals are memories for the students to see, you overcame the impossible.

9th grade is a very challenging year as you are getting into your years of school where credits, GPA, and test scores matter.

Help us to continue the motivation of this group of students that will change their way of thinking for remainder of their high school years.
