My students need playground equipment to increase and maintain their activity levels. Our recess time is unrewarding as the students have no resources to play with.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Schulz's classroom raised $615

My Students
My students are eager learners with limited supplies. We live in a somewhat isolated community on the Big Island where the cost of living is high, and income is low. We serve a wide-variety of ethnicity and income levels.
Our school is a close-knit K-8 school in a small community.
Teachers and staff work together to provide the best education possible for all students! We often do so with limited resources but with a whole lot of love and respect for our students, families, and colleagues.
My Project
These recess materials will benefit the students by providing the students with basketballs, rubber balls, and other team building games in order to increase their daily movement. As a teacher I am trying to provide the students the materials and opportunity to meet the recommended "daily 60" requirement of exercise.
Our school does not have the monetary resources to provide or replace playground equipment.
The students are currently using flat balls and broken hula hoops to entertain themselves during recess.
These recess materials will be distributed equally between the lower elementary classes and the upper elementary classrooms, as we do not share a playground.
More than half of 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
