Celebrating 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 students are ambitious, hopeful, and curious to embark on a journey that involves community building, raising awareness, developing better strategies, exploring, motivating, and doing the unthinkable to create change and bridge culture.
Our teens are creative, enthusiastic, and unique in that they've endured some of life's most difficult challenges while staying resilient and focused.
Our youth continue to dream of seeing the unknown, learning new languages, experiencing foreign delicacies, building relationships, and creating a cultural bridge that unites us regardless of our situations.
Our youth wants to help change our world by empowering each other one person at a time. The bottom line is that students want to develop, invest, and be invested in so they're more propelled to improve their lives, homes, and our communities.
My Project
This trip will make a difference in our students' lives because students will be working will focus on environmental sciences through conservation. Students will get training from the Oakland Zoo working with tigers, gibbons, and elephants before embarking on a journey 7,500 miles away.
My students are empowered, hopeful, and curious to explore on a journey across the world to help conserve different species and environments.
Our young people have endured some of life's most difficult challenges while staying resilient and focused so they without questions deserve a chance to change our world.
My students continue to dream of doing STEM projects in Thailand and Malaysia because these are the countries that are home to the animals they've chosen to help. Our East Oakland students traveling to Southeast Asia will change their lives and improve our community on levels we're not able to measure.
