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.
My Project
We have laptops in class, but they often do not work and are not well-maintained. We are requesting a new laptop to have on hand when students need to conduct research and work online. It is very disruptive to student learning when one of two students don't have the technology they need for our learing.
Providing a laptop for the classroom will help to ensure all students have access to our curriculum and learning.
This extra laptop will be used when the class laptop is not working or needs a charge. Ensuring that all students get to learn in a timely manner without delays.
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
