This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Students
The students at our school have not had the opportunity to play organized sports before. During this first year of having sports at our school, there is much excitement in the air. However, without proper equipment and supplies, our experience will be diminished.
Our scholars have never played team sports, so our school does not possess the necessary equipment, like balls, cones, or flags.
A hydration station will be a great asset to have on the sidelines.
These college preparatory scholars work hard in the classroom. They are excited to work equally on learning flag football, have fun and enjoy being with each other.
My Project
The team I coach is middle school girls and boys who want to learn a new sport. We need this equipment to make it happen. Hydration will be important as we get on the field and break a sweat.
All the items on the wish list will get through use during our initial year of sports at our inner-city school.
We have yet to obtain a supply for our flag football team.
The donations to this fund will provide for our scholars what they need as they learn a new sport and engage in a fun activity. Footballs will be thrown, flags will be swiped, learning a new sport will be our goal.
