Celebrating 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 are highly motivated and passionate about the health field. They enjoy working with their hands and raising awareness of health conditions. Many students are also part of a health community service club - HOSA, that I also advise. They often volunteer their time and labor to assist with various health-related walks/marathons throughout the year and at the local nursing home/elderly hall. The students are eager to learn more about the human body and put into practice the skills and knowledge they have gained in the classroom.

My students are future health professionals.

They are primarily Filipino and many come from an immigrant background. The students also face financial challenges. As a teacher at a Title I school, I have seen my students have to choose between some experiences because of financial hardship. I wish to provide experiences within my classroom that will help them to achieve their goals and gain skills that they will need for their future careers.

My Project

HOSA - Future Health Professionals is an extra-curricular club that helps students to participate in community service, further their knowledge and skills in health careers and showcase their knowledge in local and national competitions. The students in the club are often in my classes and apply their knowledge gained in HOSA competitions to their everyday classes. The experience of competing is a unique one that allows students to be judged by industry professionals. Students often feel more confident in their skills after competition and continue in the field with a greater sense of purpose.

My students are passionate about health careers.

They love learning new skills such as athletic taping, CPR, First Aid, and sterile technique. The materials will help me teach the students these different techniques and allow them to compete at the state and national levels. In addition to competing students often also attend workshops, showcase their knowledge to younger students, and create public service announcements using the medical supplies. Thank you for supporting my future health professionals.
