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
My students come from a low-income area at a high-priority school. Almost all of my students come from minority backgrounds and are mainly Latino. They are a bright, kind group of kids who love P.E. and love to have fun while learning.
Studies have shown that having high-quality physical education improves student outcomes and cognitive performance.
With the supplies that I currently have, I am not always able to include all of my students in the physical education that they deserve. Having a class set of jump-ropes will help me to engage all of my learners during our P.E. time, and will make sure no one gets left out.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
