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
My school is a Title One public school located in inner-city Los Angeles. Many of my students come from low-income families. and do not have regular access to books, supplies or even regular homework support. They depend on teachers and school staff for support.
They are eager and enthusiastic students who come to school to learn new things every day with a positive attitude and I strive to provide them with an environment that can help them be successful.
They are curious about all things around them and the unknowns.
My Project
Chromebooks will allow my students to access programs that will help them in reading, reading comprehension, writing and math. We are fortunate that our school is providing our students the opportunity to access programs such as Raz-Kids, Dreambox, EPIC!, and Lexia. Unfortunately we are limited in devices within our classroom in order for ALL students to have the opportunity to access these programs, nor do most students have any internet access at home. These Chromebooks will prepare students and expose them to technology they do not have access to in their homes. It will also give them the opportunity to use the resources being provided for them and expose them to learning in a different manner.
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
