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

If you have never heard of Ron Clark or have seen the movie (The Ron Clark Story) do yourself a favor and watch it! Although I am a seasoned educator, I am interested and always looking for new techniques and energetic approaches to help instill a love of learning into my students. I think attending this workshop and training program will help tweak my teaching pedagogy and increase academic rigor amongst the students that I service. I am very much looking forward to visiting active RCA classrooms and hearing from their faculty.
