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 Students

The Academy of Nursing and Health Sciences at Hartford Public High School is a National Academy Foundation school. It is a college preparatory program for students in grades 9 through 12 interested in pursuing degrees in nursing and health sciences. Our highly qualified teachers prepare young men and women with rigorous, multicultural academic enrichment programs including some clinical and shadow experiences; as well as community/parent partnerships that assist them in pursuing a post-secondary education or career program. This Academy is designed as a partnership school with the University of Connecticut School of Nursing and Capital Community College. 98% of students at the Nursing Academy are minority, with 35% being Black, 60.3% being Hispanic, and 2.5% being Asian American. 19.1% of students are disabled. 72% of the students are Female and 28% are male. Over 95% of students at the Nursing Academy are eligible for Free or Reduced Lunch.

My Project

Have you ever watched a 16 year old deliver a piece of researched persuasive writing surrounding prescription pain killer abuse? I have. The members of HOSA at HPHS work tirelessly to prepare themselves for HOSA conferences where they will have the opportunity to deliver these speeches to crowds of hundreds of students, teachers, and health care professionals. The mission of HOSA is to enhance the delivery of compassionate, quality health care by providing opportunities for knowledge, skill and leadership development of all health science education students, therefore, helping the student meet the needs of the health care community. Not only do students have the opportunity to give speeches but they compete in medical competitions such as medical innovation, forensic medicine, clinical nursing and medical math. Normally these amazing conferences are affordable and we are able to fundraise to meet the costs but this year they have raised the price to over $50 per student. Along with transportation this has become a near impossible feat. We are reaching out to our community for help in making sure these students don't lose out on a life changing opportunity.
