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

Currently my school does not provide me a printer. Our faculty lounge copier has not been functioning properly this school year. I cannot print from my school computer. I have to go home after work hours to make documents to help me work with my students. If I had this printer, I could make customized documents during school hours. I could then take them to the copier in the building to make copies for all my students. In addition, I have a wide disparity of skill levels in my four 7th grade classes. A printer would help me customize math documents for all student levels. Most importantly, I would not have to wait to go home to make these documents. I could make them in real time during class or during my prep period. If you are kind enough to provide this printer and ink cartridge, we will make documents to supplement our learning and provide diversified education to all our students. Thank you for your consideration.
