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
At TYWLS Bronx, the 10th grade is an enthusiastic bunch of students who are committed to excellence and leadership. The school is a 6-12 public school in the Bronx serving a diverse group of young women. Many of our students challenge themselves by enrolling in AP classes, engaging with their community, and creating initiatives that foster equity and cultural responsiveness. They are truly amazing and inspire the adults in the building to become the best educators.
My Project
As a Yearbook and English teacher, often I'd like to show my students how to present their ideas in creative spaces. In Yearbook specifically, kids are currently being taught how to use Photoshop and other Adobe Creativity tools. Students often have trouble using all the tools because of the limited screen space. Having a larger monitor will not only help students but also help me make better videos for students at home. It will also help administrative tasks in class run more efficiently (grading, taking attendance, zoom meetings). The kids and I would be incredibly grateful to be able to utilize the device, especially during hybrid instruction.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
