My Students

At C. High School we are a school that is very diverse and have to overcome many challenges. Majority of our students are impoverished and need help with funds to be successful both in the classroom and on the court.

Our volleyball program has been very successful because of the work ethic our players embody.

Student athletes here are pushed to be just that: both students and athletes. By helping to get more volleyballs, our students can focus on their schoolwork and on the court.

My Project

Getting new volleyballs will not only help us maintain a valuable girls volleyball program here at Coronado High School, but it will also help us build a boys volleyball program.

Our boys program is very under developed and we do not have enough funding for uniforms.

This will help offset the cost of having to purchase other materials needed for our boys program to be successful.

Because I oversee both the boys and girls programs, more of our students will have access to these materials. We want to help show our athletes that they deserve the same attention as those at more affluent schools.
