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

Imagine a classroom where 4th graders aren't just learning about the future—they're building it! Our STEM Class is launching an exciting new initiative to explore artificial intelligence through hands-on robotics. With your support, 18 bright and curious students will dive into the world of coding, problem-solving, and innovation, equipping them with the skills to become tomorrow’s tech leaders.

With these tools, our 4th graders won’t just be playing with robots—they’ll be programming them to think, solve problems, and interact with the world.

They'll learn how AI is used in real life and understand how they can one day shape it.
