My Project

Middle school physical education is a great opportunity for teens to learn to play more advanced games. With basic skills learned in elementary physical education classes, we middle school teacher need to get creative and take them to the next level. Our equipment isn't always at its best. In the past, we have mismatched equipment. Unfortunately, we have little funds to maintain our equipment or get new equipment.

There are few items that can really help our students get creative.

Workout dice and new dodge balls will make gym fun and new. Please help make this hope a reality.
