Fitness and Fun
FULLY FUNDED! Coach Hayley Buchanan's classroom raised $1,167
This project is fully funded
My Project
Our school is a district center school that provides educational and therapeutic services to over 300 students with disabilities. Students are selected to attend this school based on their severe developmental, sensory, and/or behavioral needs.
The goal is to improve their learning outcomes and quality of life. These children with disabilities range in age from 5-21 and come to my Physical Education class to learn new games/activities/lifelong fitness. Each child is like a puzzle, and my job is to figure out what options will be the best fit for them.
I plan to use these items to focus on fitness, balance, sensory needs, and of course, FUN to brighten their day as many were affected by Hurricane Ian! Whether the goal of the day is to be able to walk with assistance around the gym, or juggle on one foot, success for each student is the goal.
This classroom project was brought to life by Education Foundation of Sarasota County.
Top rated for efficiency and transparency.
