Celebrating 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
I absolutely love the energy and creativity my students bring to every project. They are eager to express themselves and push their limits, especially when it comes to performances that bring our school community together. Their enthusiasm for music, video, and technology is contagious, and I’m constantly amazed by the innovative ways they work together to create something truly special.
The resources I’m requesting—microphones, camera stand, and audio equipment—will give my students the tools they need to bring their vision to life for our upcoming pep rally.
These items are essential for capturing high-quality sound and video, ensuring their hard work and performances are showcased to their fullest potential. With these resources, students will not only learn the technical skills behind recording and editing music and video, but they’ll also gain confidence in their abilities to create professional-quality content.
My goal for this project is to empower students to take ownership of their learning by using real-world tools to enhance their creativity and collaboration. The pep rally is just the beginning—these resources will serve as a foundation for future projects that help students hone their skills, work together as a team, and express themselves in ways that go beyond the classroom.
What makes my students special is their unwavering passion and dedication to their craft. They’re not just working on a performance for an event—they’re learning skills that will help them in many aspects of life. By supporting them with these resources, you’re helping to foster an environment where their creativity can flourish, their teamwork can thrive, and their confidence can grow.
