Our close-knit Title I school is located in a beautiful country setting. The students are energetic, curious and work hard. The parents are positive and the community is a great resource of support.
The students come to school each day to learn so that they can be a positive and helping participant in society.
The students work together to support one another both in the school and outside of the school day. Whenever a need arises in the community our students are always there to lend a helping hand. Therefore, when we can help to pay it forward to the students we jump at the opportunity.
My Project
The knee pads we are requesting are a much-needed piece of equipment when playing volleyball. The girls are expected to play hard and go for any ball that is near them. This could mean diving or falling to the floor to save a ball. Without knee pads, a hard fall to the floor would leave you with many bruised knees.
Providing the girls with knee pads will give them confidence that they can put forth their best effort because they will be protected by the cushion of a knee pad.
The girls will all have the same knee pads that will help make them look like a team. Knee pads benefit the girls by allowing them to persevere and play their best.
More than half of students from low‑income households
