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

Our generous community has been so amazing over the past few school years and helped our class sustain tools for building their digital notebooks and helping them to grow in their tech literacy.

Please consider helping our students stay charged as we continue to grow our digital classroom.

Students have difficulty with maintaining charged iPads throughout the school day. Some students do not have the ability to charge at home or where they are staying, and their only reliable source of charging is here in the classroom. We are asking for donors to support us in acquiring more portable chargers and cables to charge as well as a docking station where students can safely leave their school devices to charge in class while learning.

We have seen such tremendous growth in the students this past year since having more consistent digital tools for learning. We believe that teaching them through the use of technology is preparing them to be stronger digital citizens and preparing them for their futures.

Thank you for your consideration!
