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

My students are all extraordinary kids! Most of these students reside in a poor, urban area that is grossly underfunded, and, in some areas, lacking even the most basic of needs. Although many of them come from tough neighborhoods and lifestyles, they are strong, smart, and full of life. These are the scientists of tomorrow.

Each of these individuals has a mind for science and a contribution to make to the scientific world.

Their ingenuity is exceptional, and their thirst for learning is unquenchable. I learn more from them than they do from me! These kids are the kinds of kids that inspire innovation. They are the example that leaders should be following and the hope that will fuel the future.

My Project

My high school science students deserve a lab! Unfortunately, due to building limitations and the constraints of an underfunded inner-city school district, my high school lab science students are unable to have this important science experience. I am therefore dedicated to giving my students the best simulated-lab experience that I can.

While I cannot provide my students a real lab, I can offer them amazing lab simulations using tools such as the digital microscopes and lab materials I am requesting.

Thankfully, the teachers in the science department are a close bunch. Given our willingness to share with one another, these microscopes will benefit not only the students in my science classroom but all the additional students learning science in the building. Supporting this project supports the more than 900 students entering our school this year as they will all take a science course their freshman year.
