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.

My Project

Our student-athletes need safety equipment, specifically helmets, that are consistently upgraded and that meet the safety standards for high school baseball. These particular helmets meet the NOCSAE requirements.

Our student athletes will be properly equipped for batting and baserunning.

Safety is always our top concern. In addition to the brand new helmets purchased through this project, our Tech Ed department will create vinyl stickers for the fronts of the helmets to represent our school.

The new helmets will protect our athletes from some of the inherent dangers associated with playing baseball. We thank you for your support and for choosing to support our program.
