My Project

Our elementary school has evolved from what it was when most of us went to school. If you walk into an elementary now you see student working hard due to the constant demands placed on them due to high stake testing.

Students not only deserve but need a break from academics and with this project they will get just that.

With proper equipment, like soccer and basketballs, students would be able to not just enjoy a break, but will be able to develop social skills that a lot of students come to school without.

When you think back to your elementary days what stands out to you. I remember playing with friends on our old wooden jungle gym, playing with my friends Power Ranger toys under the monkey bars, playing kickball with a basketball because that was all we had, and so many more memories that helped me grow not only as a student by giving me a much needed break but also as a person.
