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 Students
We were recently featured in the New York Times for having 44 percent of our students in housing crisis. KI High School, where about 44 percent of students who attended the school over the last four years were homeless at one point.
Our school is a 100% free lunch & Title I school serving new immigrants in the Bronx (NYC), New York.
Our kids are amazingly motivated to achieve the American dream. Most of the parents did not finish high school.
My students are future minority engineers; make their dreams come true. They are hard working and super motivated. All they need is to get to the knowledge and wireless will make that happen.
Please help them in their quest to become future engineers.
My Project
AP Exams put tons of stress on English as a New Language Learners, but with an ELMO reader they can correct and see the power of their writing as the correct and learn from others writing in class.
Imagine students helping other students to write better and acing exams that often hold them back because of the writing.
When they can see on the big screen how to self correct their own class writing, they learn better and can get better grades on the exams that so often stop them from getting into college.
You can help them get to where they want to be by providing a tool that can make that happen!
Nearly all 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
