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 school wheelchair is in need of replacement. It has been in business for the past 16 years and is giving out on us. Having a wheelchair readily available for emergencies is not just a matter of convenience, but a crucial component of student care in emergency situations. Our nurse, Mrs. Cagle, is our "first responder" in situations requiring immediate medical attention, she understands the significance of swift and safe student transportation.

A wheelchair accessible in emergencies can make a significant difference in outcomes, facilitating the rapid movement of students to treatment areas, aiding in evacuations, or simply ensuring that those who suddenly cannot walk are not left without assistance.

This necessity transcends the basic function of mobility aid; it embodies the commitment to student safety and the proactive stance in emergency preparedness.
