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
Hello everyone,
This year we are focusing on starting a high school esports program to give students an outlet that they are comfortable with here at school.
Students have been seeking a space where they can hang out during lunch and afterschool. The students have also have reached out because they know that I have run game club.
I have run successful esports program at previous high schools, where students learn leadership qualities, how to work in a team, playing with other teams, scheduling matches, and discussing game strategy. I am hoping that they can grow and learn these skills from game club. Students meet once a week to discuss strategy, matches, and any information with the adults and their teammates. The matches are once a week for each game they play(depending on how many games they play).
Help us have an environment where our students can grow and play.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
