My Students

As a SPED teacher and Coach at a Title I school, my students are faced with several challenges both in and out of the classroom. Despite the many challenges they face, they come to school each and every day to succeed in the classroom and in the sport of wrestling.

To eliminate the challenge of having to pay for equipment our school tries to provide every student with team shoes to compete in the sport of wrestling.

By providing each child with a pair of shoes, they have the ability to compete.

My Project

The providing of theses shoes it will give our student athletes team pride and a sense of team comaraderie. It will help to uniform us from top to bottom when we go into battle with other teams.

This will help give our students the opportunity to be in a sport that teaches discipline, courage, and responsibility.

It will build their confidence and lift their spirits that, "They are deserving to be successful in wrestling and in life.

It will also provide them an understanding that people want to see them be champions on the mat and in their lives as they forge on a path of a new horizon for their future.
