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

Here’s how each resource will help:

1.

Insignia - 4.9 Cu. Ft. Mini Fridge with Bottom Freezer and ENERGY STAR Certification

How it helps students:

Many of our students spend long hours on campus or in study environments without consistent access to fresh food. This mini fridge will allow them to store healthy meals, snacks, and drinks, reducing their reliance on expensive takeout or vending machines. It promotes better nutrition and wellness, which supports focus and academic success—especially for those juggling school and work or sports.

2. Apple - 11-inch iPad (A16 chip, 128GB)

How it helps students (via teacher use):

This iPad will be used by me to support instruction in and out of the classroom. It will allow for more interactive and tech-integrated teaching, from annotating digital texts to presenting multimedia lessons. I’ll also use it to manage communication, student data, and lesson planning on the go—ensuring that I stay organized and responsive to student needs. Ultimately, this tool helps me serve students more efficiently and creatively.
