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

I love how my students show dedication, teamwork, and a desire to improve every day. They are passionate about esports and constantly push themselves to learn strategies, develop critical thinking, and build strong communication skills. With an additional PS5 and a charging dock, we can expand our program, giving more students hands-on experience with competitive gaming. These resources will allow them to engage in multiplayer games, improving coordination and collaboration. My goal is to create a dynamic, inclusive environment where students can excel both in gameplay and in life skills. My students are special because they embrace challenges with enthusiasm, and this project will help them grow both academically and personally.
