My Students

Our middle school is home to grades 5-8 and our gymnasium is used not only by our school for our school programs but also our athletic events, and many community members use our gymnasium for Rec. basketball practice and games as well. We typically have four season basketball teams. Two girls teams and two boys teams.

My Project

The students look forward to welcoming other students to our school and love the opportunity for other area schools to see just how wonderful our school is.

They want to be proud to represent their school and work to bring the community into their school so that everyone can see the wonderful things we are doing here.

We are limited on storage so the cart will be ideal to store the chairs out of the way and the cover will keep them safe and secure. This will also greatly help at this time due to COVID regulations. We can easily wipe the chairs with disinfectant and place them in a secure location.
