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 Students

Our students are high-poverty, high-needs, and highly capable in Washington. We have a diverse population, which includes many varying socioeconomic levels, as well as students who qualify for various special needs programs, such as Intensive Learning Center, Intensive Academic Center, English language learners, Special Education, Challenge Program, and much more.

We provide many opportunities for extracurricular involvement and include arts as an important part of this.

Our kids are enthusiastic and motivated and really enjoy doing things that involve more than just sitting, reading, and writing. Our kids have great potential.

My Project

This project requests some rechargeable AA batteries as well as a charger to be able to recharge those batteries.

All of our microphones use this type of battery, and if we have rechargeable ones we won't need to keep buying batteries over and over again and putting the ones that we've used up into the landfill.

Teaching kids that not only is it important to have body microphones to use on stage but also that it's important to take care of them and keep their use sustainable with a rechargeable system is important to me.
