Bikes for Better Brains

Help me give my students a safe place to store their bikes and scooters so we can use them during our fitness activities.

My Project

I have bikes and scooters available for my students to ride during the school day as part of our fitness routine. Exercise has many proven benefits both cognitive and emotional. The results of this activity show up in class as calmer, relaxed, and more engaged students.

But suddenly we have no place to store our bikes!

Due to additional class offerings and room assignments, we are in need of a storage solution. A secure storage location would be a great help.

Not only do they enjoy riding the bikes, but they enjoy learning how to fix and maintain them as well. I love teaching them a skill that can support an active lifestyle for their future.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
