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

My students' brilliantly diverse and interesting backgrounds make this urban high school a lively place! Imagine seeing games and activities from many different cultures, hearing languages from around the globe, and watching the interactions of independent, strong-willed teenagers day in and day out. This is my high school, and I have yet to see a day that is not full of life!

A vibrant mix of languages, backgrounds, talents, and goals are shared in my classroom, presenting many unique learning opportunities and challenges.

Poverty and crime are very prevalent in the area; nearly every student receives free and reduced lunch and many students carry traumatic home experiences with them every day. Despite their circumstances, my students remain positive and resilient. The goal of this year's Leadership class is to provide opportunities to make a school climate that is positive and exciting for all students, whether that be advertising events, playing games at rallies, or developing new events. We need the tools to fully support this mission, and my students will build a high school that kids are proud to attend!

My Project

The students have requested a variety of art materials to use for making promotional posters, class signs for rallies, sport banners, and so much more. Planning, organizing, and communication are some of the most important tasks of the Leadership class, and therefore, students are placing an emphasis on promoting all campus events and encouraging students to participate. With these necessary materials, students can begin to do just that.

Leadership students are building school climate, one activity at a time!

All students across campus would benefit from this project, because they will be in-the-loop and participants of all campus events put on BY STUDENTS, FOR STUDENTS! Leadership's overall goal is that students will leave high school with a positive school experience. In turn, we will be developing individuals that value a well-rounded, engaging education and are ready to be leaders in society.
