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

Although my students come from one of the poorest areas of the South Bronx, they bring a wealth of experiences and ideas to my classroom. They are eager to have meaningful learning opportunities that build upon their interests while learning the skills necessary to succeed in our technology-driven society.

To say the odds are stacked against my students is an understatement; yet, with the support of caring teachers and other staff members, my students are graduating and moving on to college and successful careers.

Most students enter our school performing below grade level in terms of reading and mathematics. They find themselves subjected to a system of institutional discrimination that makes it difficult for students of color and non-native English speakers to advance.

My students are capable of great achievements, but they need access to the same resources as their more affluent peers (thank you DonorsChoose.org!) and quality teaching.

My Project

Before the pandemic our school had useable laptops in each classroom, but during the pandemic nearly all of our laptops were distributed to students to be used during remote learning. With all of that extra use, many laptops were damaged and now we don't have enough in our classrooms.

We need two new laptops for our classroom.

I occasionally use laptops with my physics students but need them nearly every day for my computer science and robotics classes. The pandemic has already taken so much from my students; I'd hate to see them lose out on their robotics and computer science classes too because we don't have the equipment. Please give my students the opportunity to compete in a robotics competition and design creative digital art, animations, games, and apps, all while learning skills for their future.
