My Project

Our Middle School is a diverse school of approximately 900 students, with half coming from low-income households. Providing us with these basic materials will help us teach our students how to play many different sports at all levels and abilities. Our classes include STEP, Special Education, English Language Learners, and Life Skills. We have found that some of our students have never had the opportunity to participate in physical education classes and we would love to teach them as many sports as possible, but also the life lessons that go along with them!
