Girls Running to Fitness 3

My Students

My students are amazing, marvelous, and challenging on many levels. Our new reality of virtual learning comes with its own set of advantages and challenges and my sholars are rising to the challenge.

It is a journey to discover how best to serve every single one of my students and get them ready for college and for life, and I am enjoying the ride.

Our school is a Title I school in Atlanta where 100% of our students receive free breakfast and lunch. Many of our students are facing many socioeconomic challenges that hinder their academic success. As I observe them via the lens of our Zoom sessions, enthused in a lesson, I regain my conviction that a future is possible and achievable for all my students.

My Project

For our ladies or athletes in general, staying in one spot without moving is a recipe for disaster. Wearing a running watch is a good tool for training and motivation as it captures steps, miles, and heart rate as well as the distance to the set goal.

The running watches will allow my lady athletes to continue to move even during Distance Learning until we are allowed to face off on the field.

With your help, my girls will continue to move and train. This training will also open the door for conversations where we share tips about staying healthy and fit even during the restrictions of the pandemic.
