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
My students are passionate, driven, and eager to make a difference in our school, community. As members of the student council, they take on leadership roles, organize events, and develop initiatives that enhance our school culture. However, access to technology is a challenge, limiting to collaborate effectively, conduct research, and create digital presentations to bring their ideas to life. With these tablets my student leaders will have the tools they need to stream line communication, plan events, and develop essential 21st century skills such as organization, teamwork, and problem solving.
