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
I have students who come from all kinds of backgrounds. They range anywhere from grade levels behind in their education to achieving far above grade level.
They come from troubled and unsafe neighborhoods.
Whatever their backgrounds, they still find the motivation to come to school every day because they know education is the key to their futures. Whether they choose to go to college or a trade school, I will help them to get there.
I want them to be able to reach those expectations that I have for them and they have set for themselves.
My Project
Many of my students do not have internet access at home. They need to be able to stay up-to-date on their progress and grades. One way to do this is to print them regular reports to keep them informed. In order to print, we need ink.
There is not a school-provided printer which makes me capable of printing reports on demand.
We have copy machines far across campus, but many times students need updates immediately.
Students need to feel important. This is just one way I can show them that I care about their progress and improvement. A little can go a long way.
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
