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

My students are scientists. My students are mathematicians. My students are readers. My students are authors. My students are explorers. My students make discoveries each and every day.

Our Science Academy provides our students with a fast-paced and rigorous STEM curriculum.

It is our mission to provide our students with a challenging and inquiry-based STEM curriculum to maximize individual potential and ensure that our students succeed in a global community. Our goal is to expose students to as many learning opportunities that will prepare them for the future as possible, all while bringing to the forefront ideas and concepts that they may not have considered before.

My Project

Our students need resources to support their social-emotional learning! When students have resources that support them with examples, engagement, and modeling, they are able to internalize and use these social-emotional strategies in their classrooms, on the playground, and in life!

Sometimes the smallest people have the biggest feelings.

These books will help our staff support our students to identify those big feelings and how to process them. Just like so much else we teach in school, social-emotional curriculum and learning are critical to cultivating well-rounded students who will grow into well-developed adults.
