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 were once identified by a previous administrator as "dying on the vine." Their particular demographic automatically places them within "at-risk" categories. But what people do not see that faculty and staff at my school see every day, is the hard work and dedication that my students possess. They possess perseverance to continue on when time after time they are doubted! They possess good hearts that care deeply about not only their academics but arts, classmates, music, sports as well!

My Project

The robotics competition mat will be used for training purposes. This competition mat will also be used during actual competition. By exposing my students to the world of coding, I will create possible future career paths for them. The competition will help my students utilize higher order thinking skills that will in turn, help them in other areas of learning as well. The robotics competition mat will not only prepare my students for the robotics competition, but it will no doubt prepare my kids to meet the technological demands of our increasingly advanced society. Thank you in advance for your support!
