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

Recently purchase 10 (& hopefully 10 more soon) tablets to be shared amoung 300+ students. These tablets will need covers and a charging cart. Our current classroom has a limited amount of wall plugs. With the estimated 25 tablets we will need 1 central location to house them. Students have been very gentle and responsible when using our current 5 tablets. These tablets have never gone missing but are often misplaced around the classroom. Having the cart will help with not only housing but also charging. We are so excited about not having to borrow technology!
