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
Credit recovery is one of many incentives/educational strategies used by my district to give our high school students who have failed a class the opportunity to redo coursework or retake a course through alternate means, and thereby avoid failure and earn academic credit. The students I facilitate are here because they desire to graduate. They have not obtained their credits for a number of reasons, but we are excited that they are now making an effort.
My students take their credit-recovery course during normal school hours, after school, on vacation breaks, or over the summer.
Some are in my class for 8 hours a day, working diligently to graduate during the December graduation session.
This art project will allow the students to decorate a graduation cap as they complete their course(s). The caps will be displayed in our center as they reach their goals!
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
