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.

I am writing to ask for basic PE equipment for our school. We are a relatively new charter school that has been built in the very crowded streets of downtown L.A. We are very limited for space and the play area that we have is very small. I am the P.E. teacher and I am given very little equipment. The equipment I use is shared throughout the entire school from Kindergarten - 8th grade (approx.600 students) outside of my regular physical education classes. So this would mean for recess, lunch recess, and for teachers to use for their classes. Because of this there is a real shortage of equipment. Sometimes I am not able to teach certain classes because some teachers have kept certain materials in their class, so when I go to teach a class my materials are missing. Also the wear and tear on material that is used everyday for ten months straight can be real terrible. We find that by the end of the year the equipment is in such bad shape that it is either not able to be used for the next year or it has only a very short life span left. I believe if I were able to get more equipment into the school then this would definitely help the situation. Also with the new equipment, I believe that it would be a lot easier to share since there would be more of everything versus trying to juggle very limited materials throughout the P.E. program and a whole school. I would like to know that the program that I am running is a strong solid program and not one that is limited to the material that I don't have. Please join in and help contribute to the future of many children. I believe with all of the problems that we face with obesity in children and lack of proper nutrition today in America, that P.E. should not only be fun but it is also detrimental in helping to live healthy lives. This is why I am also asking for nutrition awareness materials. This way I can also teach the children how to be aware of what they are eating and also giving them the understanding on a grass roots level of what nutrition really is. By having a better understanding for their health and nutrition I believe that this will not only help the children, but it will also help the parents. The children can educate parents on what should be and what should not be consumed on a daily basis. So with these materials we won't only be helping students but we'll be helping entire families. I thank you for your time and your contribution in advance.
