My Project

My kindergarten students are amazing, kind, and energetic! They love playing games, interacting with their peers, and being able to run around and play with each other. Recess time and free play time are when they get to run free or play on the play structure, create their own games, and just have fun together!

I would like to purchase 2 adjustable basketball hoops and a set of basketballs for the kindergarten classes at my school.

We have a lot of basketball fans (Go Warriors!) in our kinder classes and they love to shoot around on the blacktop! Sadly, both of our 10+ year old rims are rusted and falling apart. I think it would make the students so happy to have new basketball hoops for them to play with in our kinder yard! Thank you for considering this project!
