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
Our school is a high-risk Title I school in an urban setting. We have 40% of our students living in temporary housing. Our school community is small but there is a real need to address the gaps they encounter because of their families low economic status.
As we embark on a new school year where many students are remote and a small number are in the classroom, we see a need in connecting our scholars so that they may all learn together.
My Project
In March, when our school community was hit by the full ramifications of the pandemic, we emptied our computer carts in order to provide all of our students a device to carryout remote learning. We would like to purchase Microsoft Surface Go devices for the students in the 5th grade classrooms.
Our scholars deserve every opportunity offered to others.
Many of our families are struggling to meet the basic needs of our children.
By ensuring that they have technology in the classroom we make sure that their learning experience is optimal as they alternate learning environments in blended learning. We have a new virtual learning rubric and student's total grade will be made up of the work they do while in class and at home.
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
