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

The microphones will enhance our students' ability to produce high-quality audio for their school news program, helping them develop technical skills, improve their communication, and learn the importance of clear, effective storytelling.

The goal is to equip our students with the tools they need to create professional-grade news segments, allowing them to gain hands-on experience in media production, build their confidence in public speaking, and foster teamwork as they collaborate on every aspect of the news broadcast.

Our students are passionate, creative, and eager to share their voices with the school community. They take pride in their work and are dedicated to bringing important stories to light, from school events to broader community issues.
