Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

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 Project

In our journey towards educational innovation, we've embarked on the path of Building Thinking Classrooms, where students engage dynamically, fostering a fresh perspective on mathematics. Witnessing their remarkable progress has been truly inspiring. However, our pursuit of excellence faces a persistent challenge: the scarcity of essential supplies.

Our students, resilient despite economic hardships, are unable to bear the burden of acquiring whiteboard markers and other necessities.

Yet, their enthusiasm remains undeterred. Let us join hands, infusing hope into their educational journey, ensuring that no dream is hindered by mere lack of resources. Together, we can transform constraints into opportunities, nurturing a generation empowered by knowledge and ingenuity.

Grades 9-12
