Celebrating 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.
In a neighborhood where parents care so much about their children's safety and education, many of them cannot provide the many resources needed to help their children be as prepared as they can be to be successful. Our students overcome many economic and social barriers and really are resilient, despite the obstacles. For many of our students who are trying to simply survive and to help their family survive, we (as a staff) try to provide as much as we can to these well deserving students.
Our World Languages department is small, but we have tried to create a sense of unity within our department and last year, because of very outdated textbooks, we decided to start Interactive Notebooks with our students, but we cannot sustain it for next year.
Due to some regulations, we are not allowed to require supplies, but this year was so successful that we want to keep it going. Students have all their notes, work, and essential information in their notebooks and even through this Distance Learning, our department keeps up the use of these Notebooks to keep a sense of structure and familiarity. Please consider investing in our students.
My Project
Our high school students work hard and deserve the best and at this point, that means, better resources than the textbooks that are very outdated. Our Notebooks allows them to keep their vocabulary, their grammar notes, and their practice all in one area.
Our teachers are working hard to be more creative, but the funds are limited and most of us have to pay out of pocket.
Please consider investing in these Royals who need to prepare to compete with other high schools that do have resources, as they prepare for college.
