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 believe that every student deserves the bet possible education and support to help them succeed. Unfortunately, my current resources are limited, and I am struggling to provide the level of support that my students need.

A laptop would be a game-changer for my classroom.

The laptop would enable me to access a wealth of online resources, which could further enrich the learning experiences for all of my students. With a laptop, I would have access to special education software, which would streamline my individualized education plan (IEP) and assessment process. This would also allow me to provide even more individualized attention to each student helping them to reach their potential.
