Finding Their FITness

Help me give my students iPads and cases for the means, ideas, examples, and choices of how they want to stay active; while covering vital fitness aspects and standards for each class. This equipment will help them "Find their FITness".

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Petty's classroom raised $951

This project is fully funded

My Students

Nearly all my students are from low‑income households. My students deserve to use equipment that they would otherwise never have the opportunity to use. I teach both regular education PE/Wellness and Life Skills PE classes. They are excited to improve their wellness both physically and mentally!

My Project

My high school students need to "Find their FITness" to promote lifelong wellness. The iPad and case will help them research and find apps and exercises to help them find a way to stay fit and enjoy doing it. iPads are easy for all of my students to navigate. I teach all students in the school. I will use these most during my adaptive PE class where my students are very good at navigating the iPad. Please fund these materials for my wonderful students. Thank you for any help you can give us!
