My Project
Please, help me provide much needed equipment for my student athletes period. The Apple iPad , speed sled bars, and deadline bars will help our student athletes increase their speed and strength. The iPad will allow us to track their speed and progress throughout the season. It will also serve as a recording device so our student athletes will have the chance to submit footage to college coaches. Our student athletes face hardships throughout their lives through different challenges. Allowing them to become better student athletes and have the access to submit their progress to college coaches will give them a chance to succeed.
Please help me give my students these tools to achieve greatness.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
