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

Decision Day is a high school tradition that celebrates students and their post-secondary plans. In addition to celebrating the graduating class, this celebration gives the underclassmen something to look forward to and encourages them to to start planning their futures. Our high school is a Title I school, meaning that they come from low income families. These students are unfortunately underrepresented in post secondary institutions. Our community is also geared more towards seniors joining the workforce after graduating. I would like to change that by hosting our first ever Decision Day! Students from CCHS all deserve to enroll in college if they choose. Creating a college-going culture through Decision Day will help us spread awareness so more of our students can plan for life after high school.

With your help CCHS can start a new tradition, one that will generate excitement towards a post-secondary education.

My goal for this project is to honor the students who applied to a two or four year school, as well as to motivate others to look into furthering their education. The decorations I am requesting will contribute to a more engaging and celebratory atmosphere. Your donation will strengthen our school community, boost student morale, and will encourage all students to take pride in their educational endeavors.

It is my first year as a College Adviser at CCHS, at the start not many students were applying or asking questions about college. With some support and advising that has changed. As of now, 344 seniors have submitted at least one college application! Students who were hesitant to apply to school are now confident in the choices they made. We are building a college going culture here in South Georgia and I believe that this celebration will help it grow.
