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.
Remember what it was like applying to college, scholarships and first jobs? My students need a printer in my classroom so they can print out important documents they need to meet the many requirements on the path to college and/or a career!
Our school is a small alternative high school serving students that have been unsuccessful in the traditional high school setting.
Approximately 90% of our students qualify for free or reduced lunch. The majority will be the first in their families to graduate from high school and attend college. Most have overcome significant social, emotional, and academic obstacles. They have made the choice to stay in school in order to create a better life for themselves and their families. They are full of potential but require wraparound services and support due to their circumstances. They have been labeled failures time and time again. Help me help them believe in themselves!
My Project
I am requesting a printer for my classroom. This simple item will help my students immensely. Since most of the students I work with do not have access to computers, Internet or printers in their homes, they rely on school for these necessary resources. My classroom does not have a printer which makes it difficult for them to make copies of important documents. A printer would allow them to make copies of their resumes, job applications, scholarship applications, college applications and college admission essays. This addition to my classroom will save my students an extra step that often gets in the way of them actually following through to complete important post-secondary planning steps.
By funding my request for a classroom printer, you are not only helping my students make a successful transition to college or career, but most importantly, you are telling them that you care!
You are sending the message that you believe in them!
