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

The computers will be used as attendance incentives for our middle school students. For everyday they attend school for the quarter they will receive a ticket and be put in the drawing for the the personal computers. Computers are important educational tools.

The computers will help my students fill in gaps of equity so that they can succeed in their education.

Having these items students will be able to access more knowledge, explore their future, and complete assignments. Having their own computer will allow students to be more proficient and be able to not fall behind in their current education.
