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

My students are curious, creative, and full of potential and I want to give them every opportunity to shine. A MacBook Pro in our classroom would be a game-changer, allowing us to bring lessons to life in exciting new ways. Whether we’re creating digital projects, exploring coding, or making interactive presentations, this tool will help my students think critically, collaborate, and express themselves in ways that traditional learning tools just can’t match.

My goal with this project is simple: to make learning more engaging, relevant, and fun.

Technology is a huge part of the world my students are growing up in, and I want to equip them with the skills and confidence to thrive in it. With your support, we can turn our classroom into a place where curiosity meets creativity and where every student gets a chance to discover their potential. Let’s bring a little MacBook Magic into their learning journey!
