Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

I am lucky to teach an energetic, fun-loving group of students who thrive when they are active, engaged, and learning new skills together. They love games that are fast-paced and social, and pickleball has quickly become a favorite in our PE program.

Our classes are large, and we often have two or more groups rotating at the same time, which makes it challenging to ensure every student has the equipment they need.

These 30 junior-sized rainbow Pick-A-Paddle paddles will allow all students to participate at once, giving them more opportunities to practice skills, build confidence, and stay active throughout the entire class period.

With the right-sized paddles designed specifically for younger players, students will be able to develop proper technique, improve coordination, and experience success early on. Most importantly, these paddles will help create an inclusive environment where every student feels involved, supported, and excited to learn.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
