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 have very big hearts and truly make do with what they have. For some, school is their safe haven from extremely poverty-stricken and violent homes. My students are in a very low-income community. They are kind and loving but may not get all the things they need. I have really gotten to know these students in our building and their families very well. I have already learned that I have children who come from needy families. Some of my children come from split families where they may or may not see one or both parents. I am very lucky to be able to touch these kiddos' lives. They are very creative and love to be able to explore their learning world through my classroom.
Each child in the class has his or her own unique personality that has really brought our community together.
They are very creative and are starting to really enjoy the academic world and are improving every day.
My Project
The headphone that our classroom has right now do not adjust to the kid's heads. They only have an audio port to connect with laptops. We have been coming to the issue that the jacks are breaking or the headphones are just outdated so they really need to be updated.
The students use computers every day and they really need a functional way to charge them if the laptops are charging.
The power strips that we have now are getting stepped on because kids don't see them and they have a hard time plugging their laptops in without causing a tangling web of power cords all over the classroom. We are in major need of power surge towers for the safety of our classroom.
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
