Physical Education Equipment for Success in Middle School

Help me give my students access to equipment for their Physical Education classes

My Project

I am requesting physical education equipment because this equipment will help to motivate our middle schoolers to become active and enjoy their time spent in Physical Education class.

Providing students with a variety of equipment including dodgeballs, volleyballs, kickballs, and kickball equipment will help students to refine their motor skills and give them the chance to become active.

Physical Education is a course that all students at our school are required to take. However, over the years our equipment has either gone missing or been destroyed. Students do not have access to the equipment currently they need to be successful in their Physical Education class.
