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

Our students and their families are really special. We have a large school, with an ethnically and socioeconomically diverse population, and we work hard to create opportunities for our community to get together to share their unique experiences and engage in and celebrate learning.

With a majority of the families in our school living in poverty, we try to create innovative learning experiences that build our students' repertoire.

We want to offer students at our Title I public school the same sorts of experience that students in rich public schools receive. We are focused on social justice and educational equity.

My Project

The idea my student has for his project is to provide the computer class with iPads to extend their learning experience with options for different operating systems to become familiar with. With his project, he is hoping that the inclusion of iPads in the computer class will give our students a leg up on the newest technologies.

This project is important to our school because our students need the proper technologies to prepare for the future.

My student is sure that having iPads in the computer class will improve the minds of current and future students with the technologies already included on them, and also with the ability to update them with the most current technologies.
