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

Our high school has over 2,000 students. Our population has families whose primary language is one of 18 languages, other than English and Spanish, at home. We are proud of our diversity and are one of the largest public high schools in the state of New Jersey. We have 18 varsity sports and 4 varsity academic competition teams including the FIRST Robotics Challenge team 3314, The Mechanical Mustangs.

Every year, our graduating seniors are encouraged to attend Project Graduation, an overnight activity on campus from 9 pm to 6 am on Friday evening after graduation.

"The primary aims of Project Graduation activities are to increase awareness of the dangers of drinking, drugging, and driving and to reduce the number of youth involved in alcohol and other drug-related highway crashes...It has become much more than an event that occurs on graduation night. It is a communitywide planning process that strives to create a caring, supportive environment and more open communication between youths and adults."(CASA)

As always, our students need to be safe. In order to stay safe and enjoy the activities planned on our campus, we need to maintain security. This means that students cannot bring their backpacks. We want to supply each student with a clear plastic handle bag with their name and id on it to keep any personal items they may need: a change of clothes, a towel, hygiene products, etc. Keeping students safe is the priority and this activity is a tradition and we are modifying it to maintain COVID precautions.

Please keep our graduates safe on graduation night.
