Mrs. Weingarten from Chicago IL is requesting books through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Athletics for Everyone

We need volleyballs, heart rate monitors, Lacrosse sticks, and Lacrosse balls. My students need this new equipment to continue to expand our AMAZING athletic program.

My Students

My students attend a world language school where they learn one of four languages: Arabic, Chinese, French or Spanish.

Over eighty percent of my students receive free or reduced priced lunch.

These students care about each other and help each other both academically and socially. I see all of my kindergarten through eighth grade students two or three times each week.

The athletic department has grown and now we have have over 15 teams at our school and we are hoping to add an additional 5-10 teams.

My Project

The materials that I am requesting for my athletes will help to expand the growing athletic program at my school. Lacrosse sticks will help start a new sport/team at our school.

The volleyball team, hockey teams and the soon to be lacrosse team all need new equipment.

These items will expand our ever growing athletic program. The coaches will have the necessary equipment to help the athletes grow personally, academically and athletically.

The lacrosse sticks, balls and goalie sticks will help start a new lacrosse team. The volleyballs will allow the team to work on more individualized skills and the heart rate monitors will allow coaches to monitor their athletes.
