Gym/Indoor Shoes

Help me give my students gym shoes so they aren't wearing boots all day and can run around in the gym.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Mere's classroom raised $323

My Project

My students are in need of gym shoes. Many of them do not have their own pair. Gym shoes are needed to run safely around our gym during P.E. They are also more comfortable for the kids to wear in the classroom.

Gym shoes make learning easier by making my students more comfortable at school.

Many of my students only have winter boots right now. Their feet get uncomfortable and hot during the school day. Some of these shoes will be given to students to keep/have as needed. Some of these shoes will be classroom borrow pairs for when shoes are forgotten at home.
