Celebrating 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 curious, smart 5th graders who are would benefit from your donations. These students attend a Pre-Kindergarten - 8th-grade school. Our student body is 99% Latino. Our school is located in a low socio-economic, bilingual community. Our students receive one hundred percent free breakfast and lunch. We are a Title I school that serves one of the poorest areas in the Los Angeles County. Most of these students are English language learners, many of which also come from disadvantaged homes.
My Project
My students have to share a mobile cart of about 25, sometimes not working, 8 year old (outdated) laptops with 16 other 3rd-5th grade classrooms. Our district purchased 3 iPad carts for our K-8th-grade school, approximately 1,100 students. These carts are primarily shared throughout all classrooms so that students take district and state Common Core assessments throughout the school year.
The donations for this project will improve my classroom by allowing my students to be exposed to updated technology that will be in their own classroom and not have to share.
Students will have it at their own fingertips. Having these Chromebooks, students will be able to have a rotation system where they can use them on a daily basis instead of about once a week for just an hour. By having access to Chromebooks, they will be able to do research, projects, and visit the world without leaving their classroom!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
