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 past few school years our school has been affected by significant and unprecedented events: Hurricane Harvey, Tropical Storm Imelda, and COVID-19. However, my students are resilient and do not let these types of events stand in their way of achieving their goals. Our school is the center of the community for our area. Both the school and community have been greatly impacted by these past and current events. Through support and joint efforts, both have done a phenomenal job overcoming unexpected adversity this year and is still making strides in recovery. It is my job, as a teacher and coach, to ensure that students are set up for success through my guidance and equipped with all materials to better set them up for success.

Each item gives my students the resources and tools they need to present themselves in a professional manner and provides them with the tools they need for success.

Speech and Debate is more than arguing, it is a competition that teaches students how to critically think, adapt to academic situations, developing social skills, as well as developing a skill set that will allow them to be successful in their educational and professional careers.

This project will help continue building an established program, that also helps create the foundation for future students to achieve success. With recent growth of the team, we are running low on essential items for competition such as: highlighters, index cards, pens and legal pads which are a requirement for most events our students compete in; and high schoolers tend to be clumsy so an emergency sewing kit never hurt! These items help students have a more professional presentation both inside and outside competition rounds, which helps them develop the skills and confidence needed to be successful in these events.
