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

Welcome to our exciting project, where creativity meets exploration! With the generous support of donors like you, our STEAM-focused classroom is poised to embark on an incredible journey of career exploration.

Equipped with essential tools such as hot glue guns, glue sticks, markers, crayons, and a printer, our students will delve into project-based learning activities that inspire innovation and critical thinking.

These materials are the building blocks for hands-on projects that delve into various STEAM disciplines, from engineering and design to art and technology.

But what makes our students truly special is their unique backgrounds and aspirations. As English Language Learners (ELL), first-generation students, and soon-to-be high schoolers facing the daunting task of choosing their career paths, they are eager to discover the myriad of opportunities available to them.

Through engaging activities fueled by your generosity, they will not only hone their STEAM skills but also gain invaluable insights into potential career paths aligned with their interests and talents. Your support isn't just about providing supplies; it's about empowering these remarkable students to envision bright futures filled with endless possibilities
