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
Our middle school students are full of creativity, curiosity, and exciting ideas. They enjoy learning by doing, solving real-world problems, and working together to take on challenges. With your support, we hope to provide them with a Mac mini to make their learning even more exciting and meaningful.
The Mac mini will give us the tools we need to dive deeper into STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art, and math) projects.
Students can use it to create 3D models for science experiments, write and test code for robotics, and solve problems using real data. For example, they’ll work on designing prototypes for engineering challenges and exploring environmental issues using advanced software. Its speed and power will help them bring their creative ideas to life.
This project is about helping our students explore, create, and grow. With your help, they’ll build confidence, learn important skills, and see how their ideas can make a difference. Thank you for supporting our students as they dream big and discover new possibilities!
