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
I have students who come from all kinds of backgrounds. They range anywhere from grade levels behind in their education to achieving far above grade level.
They come from troubled and unsafe neighborhoods.
Whatever their backgrounds, they still find the motivation to come to school every day because they know education is the key to their futures. Whether they choose to go to college or a trade school, I will help them to get there.
I want them to be able to reach those expectations that I have for them and they have set for themselves.
My Project
As well are all aware, 2020 has been a year of changes. It doesn't seem to matter how long an educator has been teaching, we are all having to teach differently this year. Not only am I a teacher this year, but also a parent of students who are participating in distance education as well as our school's technology specialist.
Distance learning is difficult and some of my equipment, such as my printer, has been used so much that it is in need of being replaced.
A new printer will help me to assist my students and colleagues during this difficult time of distance learning.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
