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 dancers at our high school are a phenomenal group of 10th-12th graders who train daily to hone their skills. As students in a career technical education program, my students declare themselves as dance majors. These learners are physically expressive, socially conscious, and creative individuals. As a community we view education and art-making as tools for empowerment, self-reflection, and social change.

As dance majors in a CTE course of study, my students and I are responsible for maintaining accurate records and assessment evidence in a dance portfolio.

Because I instruct my students for three years in this pathway, I need an organized place to maintain these records across school years. Our classroom is in need of a better organization system other than keeping them in my desk. Please help provide us with file folders for each student for their work, file bins for each level in the program, a label maker, and gaf tape.
