My Students

My students are extremely special to me! They are very intelligent (top 2% in Utah), however most are not athletically gifted. Our school was recently awarded the opportunity to become a K-12 charter school (currently 6-12). With this new opportunity we will be looking to add a sports program to our school. Before we add a sports program, I would like to dedicate my time in training my students to succeed in the sports field. I'm very honored to work with my students in seeing them succeed!

My Project

Our school recently received amazing news that we were awarded the opportunity to become a K-12 public/charter school. We are currently a 6th-12th charter school with no sports programs. The students at our school are amazing and recently placed in the top 2% academically in the state of Utah. We have had students who participated in sports for other schools, however we are looking forward to developing a sports program for our school. I believe this starts with getting our students prepared for the activities, so we are looking to purchase equipment to develop a strength and conditioning program. I have worked with athletes on a variety of levels and would like to see the changes occur for this school with such brilliant students. Please help us develop a sports program that will not only teach my students how to get fit, but they will also benefit from this with improved mental health. We greatly appreciate your consideration!
