Help me give my students the ability to communicate.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Roman's classroom raised $409
This project is fully funded
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 Project
I work in a school in a culturally diverse neighborhood. My students speak multiple different languages including Mandarin, Spanish, French, Urdu, Arabic among many others. I would love to be able to communicate with my students and their family without using a human translator. My students are smart and inquisitive and deserve all the support that I can possibly give them. We are a school that cares and most of the staff is from the neighborhood, so we feel a great connection to the children, families and community. This translator device with over 75 different languages will allow me to make a difference in interacting with families.
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
