My Project

My physical education department is in desperate need of new equipment in the weight room. We are currently working on funding 2 different fitness related projects. This specific project includes new dumbbells, box jumps, and medicine balls.

New fitness equipment will provide various opportunities for our students participating in physical education and athletics.

1. Updated equipment will allow students to workout in a safer environment without the risk of injury.

2. The students would have the same opportunities as neighboring schools with newer fitness equipment.

3. Students can improve self-confidence by becoming more familiar with workout and gym equipment.

We want to promote physical activities and make lifetime fitness more enjoyable one day at a time!
