Celebrating 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.
We are a Title I school, where 98% of my students qualify for free lunch. Most of my students don't have books at home, nor can they afford basic school supplies. Their only exposure to learning and reading is through our classroom and school resources. My goal is for them to get the right materials so that we can focus on active learning.
We are a Learning Community school, with a variety of students, some of who have learning and emotional disabilities.
My students have limited life experiences. Most of them rarely leave our neighborhood, and I know how important it is for them to be exposed to diversity and different ways of thinking. These are kids with so much potential, but at the same time, they need positive venues for that energy. I witness, every day, how proud they are when they complete class assignments, or when they help a classmate. Still, we can do better, and I know that there is room to grow as learners and as members of our community.
My Project
Stage performances are an important and powerful tool of self-expression. As students rehearse, they practice important academic and social skills in order to show their best to their families and friends.
This soundboard will help students be heard and able to use the full stage during live performances and even musical productions for which the soundboard will be of great value.
The soundboard will improve the sound of our events and performances in a way that we will finally be able to put full plays in our newly renovated auditorium.
