Outside Sports Equipment

Please help me give my students equipment outside of PE during free time.

FULLY FUNDED! Coach Carter's classroom raised $627

My Project

Since we do not have recess in middle school, and not all students take PE, classroom teachers need to have the opportunity to take their students outside for brain breaks and free time. The students love to play football, soccer, volleyball, and other outdoor games.

I am trying to provide equipment for each grade level to use.

Currently, they are using PE equipment, and unfortunately, when that equipment gets lost or broken, the PE Department has to purchase new equipment—any shipment delay results in the PE classes having to scramble.

I know the students and classroom teachers would love to have their equipment to use at any time.
