Celebrating 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 Project
My weight training class is one of the most requested elective classes in our high school. I would love to give more students the opportunity to take the class, however, that requires more equipment both for effectiveness and safety. Due to limited equipment, the class cap is much smaller than I would like for it to be.
With the addition of another barbell and hex bar, students can have more efficiency with the time and it will prevent from several students waiting around for a piece of equipment.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
