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.
My Project
This project will help our students to start off the year strong, with major supplies needed to complete a multitude of labs in both Physics and Forensic Science. These supplies will help students conduct meaningful hands-on STEM experiences in the classroom, which reinforce concepts learned about along the year.
Labs are not only fun and enriching but mandatory for many NYS Regents level courses, in order for students to qualify to take the state exam at the close of the school year.
This list of supplies can make all the difference in over 30 different labs that I plan to implement next year in both Honor Physics and Forensic Science!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
