Mr. Robbins from Maynardville TN is requesting supplies through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Let's Run!

My students need stopwatches, batons, throwing discs, and starting blocks to practice for their track meets.

My Students

I am a PE teacher that gets to promote healthy living while having fun. I teach students different ways to be healthy, especially through exercise. I also teach my students a variety of sports and how to play them.

The county where I work is a very poor county.

My school does not receive a lot of funding for classroom supplies and things we need to help our students. Our school does not have a track, so it makes it very difficult to practice for our track meets. Just having these few supplies, I'm confident we make tremendous gains in our performances at city meets.

My Project

We have students that are committed to track, but we do not have the resources to have a fully functioning track team. We have no track for our students to practice on. If we had starting blocks, we could set them up in the parking lot, allowing students to practice their starts. The discs can be thrown on a football field. If we just had the supplies, I'm sure our diverse students would find a way to practice their talents and abilities.

I believe this will change our students lives by giving them the ability to participate in track and hopefully to excel in it.

For many of our students sports are an outlet that teaches many life skills while they get to have fun at the same time. Running promotes personal health, and hopefully our students will develop habits of training and exercise that they can take with them throughout the rest of their lives.
