My Project

My students are creative, determined, and full of school spirit. Many come from low‑income households, yet they show up every day ready to learn, collaborate, and express themselves. They don’t always have access to the materials or opportunities that students in wealthier districts take for granted, but their passion and imagination are limitless. When they cheer, they’re building confidence, teamwork, and pride in their school community.

Cheer bows- We like to add our own spin to the bows to represent each team member.

Especially our senior cheerleaders.

Fabric glue- To help keep our cheer uniforms neat and useful longer.

Shoes, hair ties, socks - some of our team members are not able to afford the basics for cheer but have the spirit.

Gym mat, megaphones - Due to funding we share these supplies with the football teams, and this makes it difficult for us to have them available for cheer needs.

Cheer drawstring bags and makeup bags - We want to provide a thank you to our cheer teams and create that connection between coach and members.

Most importantly, these supplies help students feel connected to their team, their school, and each other. They learn that their creativity has value, their voice matters, and their contributions bring joy to the whole community.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
