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 writing to share a transformative vision for the budding SHHS cross country team, comprised of a resilient and motivated group of underprivileged students predominantly from Hispanic and African American backgrounds. The introduction of a new canopy, a cooler, foldable benches, weighted vests, a first aid kit, and a set of wagons will significantly impact the growth and success of our team.
Our students face economic challenges that limit their access to necessary resources.
The new canopy will provide shelter during practice sessions and meets, shielding them from harsh weather conditions and allowing for consistent training. This not only ensures their safety, but also guarantees regular practice sessions crucial for enhancing their performance. Additionally, the cooler will help in keeping our athletes hydrated and refreshed, especially during long practice sessions and events.
The foldable benches and weighted vests are vital tools that will aid in strength training and post-run cool down exercises, optimizing the development of our athletes' physical capabilities. These tools will be invaluable for our team, giving them a competitive edge despite the limitations they face. The first aid kit is an essential safety measure, promoting the well being of our students and instilling confidence in them, knowing that their health is a priority. Lastly, the set of wagons to carry equipment will ensure efficient organization and mobility, simplifying the logistics of transporting gear and making the overall experience smoother and more professional for our students. Your support in providing these resources will be instrumental in propelling our determined students towards success in the world of cross country.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
