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 school is a middle school ranging from grades six to eight, located in West Harlem, with many of our students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. The students come from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds and many of the students are English Language Learners.
My students are intelligent, hard-working and compassionate.
They enjoy hands-on learning experiences, opportunities to be creative and taking on academic challenges. As their speech teacher, I want to be able to provide them with everything they need in order to be successful learners.
My Project
Currently, our school has given out all of our Apple MacBooks to our students for remote learning, however, we are missing some chargers from use over the years and some have normal wear and tear, making some of our computers unable to be used. If computers do not have a charger, we lose access to the amount of computers that can be sent home with students during this remote learning period. We also lose access to the amount of computers that can be used during the school day.
Help us ensure that all of our computers are able to be used for many years to come by funding replacement chargers for our MacBooks!
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
