My Students

Denison is an excellent school with an emphasis on each student growing academically, physically, emotionally and mentally. Everyday our students come to school with a positive attitude and eager to learn.

We pride ourselves in providing an amazing atmosphere where students can express themselves and learn to become a contributing part of society.

We are an inner city school with 100% of students receiving a free breakfast and lunch. Our middle school is comprised of 80 students from all walks of life with varied interests. However, the one thing all of our students will agree on is their love for physical education class and fitness. Creating a fitness space for the students will give them something productive to do after school while helping them reach their fitness goals.

My Project

Sports are an essential part of any school and help students to grow in many ways. They transform students into productive citizens and help guide them in their life choices. An exercise room will provide students with opportunities to grow their fitness and sport-specific knowledge, and gain a lifelong love of health.

Providing students with a positive, impactful experience in the exercise room will help each student develop physically and provide them with an opportunity to learn new fitness habits .

I want nothing more than to provide our students with the opportunity to learn and expand their knowledge of exercise equipment. These items will help provide them with that opportunity and more!!
