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 implementation of light filters may seem like a small adjustment, but the impact of these filters on our students' well-being and academic performance is significant.

By installing light filters, we can soften the harshness of the fluorescent light, creating a more calming and visually comfortable atmosphere for all students.

Fluorescent light can be distracting for many students with learning disabilities.This can help reduce eye strain, headaches, and fatigue, allowing students to focus more effectively on their tasks and learning activities.

Please help me not only improve the physical environment, but also create a space where all students feel comfortable, supported, and ready to learn.
