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 Project
My research club students are working on a project about space agriculture. They are trying to investigate the possibility of transforming the Martian regolith into a healthy soil using pectin and other organic nutrients to provide sustainable farming in Mars and for future space exploration. For these reasons, my students will need some sensors to be able to collect accurate data for analysis.
These students are aspiring to compete once again for the upcoming International Science and Engineering Fair.
Despite lacking of advanced equipment, these students became successful in every science fair competition they joined.
All my students belong to low income family and underserved population in the field of STEM. But with the kindness and generosity of our donors, these students proved that anyone can be a scientist. In behalf of my students we are extending our sincerest thanks and gratitude.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
