it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students
My students are starting their own digital marketing agency for the Kansas City area and need your help to be competitive. The students at our high school are from low-income areas and attend schools that have difficulty finding teachers and resources. Our school is a technical branch that buses students from their high school to ours in order to learn practical job skills.
My classes will specifically focus on digital marketing and video production for local businesses in the Kansas City area.
Our objective is to teach students the skills they need to work for an advertising agency or corporate digital marketing department. Another important objective of our class is to promote locally owned businesses and charities in our area. We will be managing the businesses and charities as our clients.
We will be creating email marketing campaigns, social media posts, and videos to capture the essence of being a locally owned business in Kansas City. Help us make our space bright, creative, inspiring, and technologically capable. The investment we make now will empower our students for years to come in the workforce or when they open their own business.
My Project
I've been focused this year on building a classroom library and this section of our classroom library will be for learning to draw things in nature and things constructed by humans. My students want more art reference books and specifically want more how-to-draw books.
We want to be better artists every day and these books will help our students learn step-by-step instructions for practicing their illustrative eye-hand coordination.
Every day we start out sketching on paper and these step-by-step books were how I learned to draw. I am hoping my students will someday look back at these books as the building blocks of their ability to draw on paper and on the computer.
