My Project

We are a 6th-12th grade low social-economical high school with an on-site middle school on campus. Our school has an enrollment of about 980 student population of majority African-American students which includes the middle school in our enrollment. Our school is about 95 percent of reduced price or free lunch, with most of our students living in a low-poverty area. We do not have all the technological needs to help support student learning. We are going through a Covid-19 pandemic right now.

Please help us with getting new name-brand football cleats for football practice and football games.

We need new football cleats so that all students will be able to participate and come to practice every day.
