My Students

Our high school is a Title 1 school located in SE Atlanta. The school has undergone a drastic turnaround and, as a result, the school is experiencing significant growth in its student population and sports participation. The MJHS Golf Team is also growing.

Golf is a sport with a lot of opportunity for college scholarships.

However, it takes many resources to allow the students to grow in this sport. Our team has been fortunate enough to receive used club donations and they have put those to good use, but the students have to share golf bags at practice and matches. With the resources the team is requesting, the students on the MJHS Golf Team will be on par with the teams who come from higher socio-economic schools. This will allow them to learn the fundamentals of the game that are based on integrity and sportsmanship. Thank you in advance for supporting our team.

My Project

Golf is a sport with a lot of opportunity for college scholarships. However, it takes the right tools and resources to put the students in a position to be successful. The team has received a lot of used club donations and they have put those to good use, but currently, the students have to share worn golf bags at practice and matches. This is not ideal and does not boost our players' confidence on the course. With the resources the team is requesting, the students on the MJHS Golf Team will be on par with the teams who come from higher socio-economic schools and be better able to master the game. Thank you in advance for supporting our team.
