My Project

Helping the kiddos learn outside the classroom as well as inside. Physical activity starts with getting them the correct tools. Remember your days on the playground and how much you learned and benefited from tools to get you there.

Our goal for this project is to supply the students with the proper, fun tools including a playground activity set, basketballs to achieve learning outside the classroom while getting some physical education and activity.

All the students at our school are special. The kiddos in our classroom have some challenges and we feel it very important to get them the proper equipment/tools.
