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 Students

I am a coach in a low-income/high poverty school district. I teach Physical Education (P.E.) and also coach volleyball, girls basketball, and girls track.

My students are very compassionate and eager to learn something new each and every day!

In the short time since school started, I have grown to love them for their individual personalities. They are eager to come to class and practice. They truly work hard each and every day.

Most of them are being raised in households by a single parent and are eligible for free lunch based on their socioeconomic status. I want them to have the normal experiences that every child should experience, without regards to their home environments.

My Project

My students and athletes need an Apple iPad so we can learn, watch the film from games, meet with fellow classmates and other teachers via Google Meet, and watch and present our class workouts to one another. I want to be able to have this type of technology available to my students. I know that the Apple iPad will help me do just that!

My students deserve to have access of the best in technology and I want to be able to provide them with that!

The Apple iPad will be used daily in a variety of capacities. It will enable all of my students to see when I am presenting lessons, meeting with other classmates, or watching and presenting our workouts. By donating to our project, you can make this happen! Any donation that is given is greatly appreciated!
