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.

I work at a special education school, servicing emotionally disturbed, learning disabled, and other special education classified students. Our students come from low socioeconomic backgrounds; over 95% of the student body is eligible for free lunch and over 90% receive public assistance. These factors come together and place our children at a huge disadvantage, but we are committed to providing these students with a rigorous academic and therapeutic program. The school’s ethnicity is as follows: 60% Hispanic, 30% African American, 8% Caucasian, and 2% Asian. I teach a program called ACE/HOP, which stands for Academic Career Endeavors/Hands-On Program, for special needs students. In this program, my students learn the basics of Math, English, Science, and Social Studies during half the school day. For the latter part of the day, they apply the skills they have learned with hands-on vocational training. Even though they are receiving vocational training, many of my students still aspire to attend college. They are encouraged to strive for their goals, both big and small! I am teaching my students to become more comfortable with technology in the classroom, because this will help them prepare for college and the world of work. Most jobs require decent computer skills, and I want to infuse my lessons with computers. My students will be able to type their assignments, conduct internet research, prepare presentations, and even use computers for their "free time." Any help would be greatly appreciated. THANK YOU!!
