I have the privilege of being one of physical education teachers at our school. We get to make learning fun and ensure students get high-impact exercise every day. The most important thing I get to do is love on students. Their passion and their work ethic inspires me.
There is nothing I would rather do than to watch students be a part of their community and be growing into healthy citizens.
Our school a very diverse school with many different nationalities and backgrounds. We want to ensure they have proper resources to overcome the educational and opportunity gap - that no matter what part of town they live in, they can have an excellent education.
My Project
We are holding our 2nd annual Winter Track Meet at Hamilton Elementary! We started this tradition last year because students like to run and compete against one another.
We would love to have a big finish line to show off the joys of completing a tough run and celebrate one another!
With this project funded, our community can rally more for our students and cheer one another on.
Students had the chance to race against each other and even their teachers. With this track meet, students know more about important values of teamwork and fair play the sport brings.
This Winter Track Meet becomes a gateway of opportunity to trying something new that they have not been exposed to before. Students can build perseverance, stamina, and determination to overcome challenges while knowing they are cared for and known in the work.
