Help me give my students supplies necessary to get us through the year!
FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Sherman's classroom raised $931
This project is fully funded
My Project
Our supply of paddles is constantly being used up as ping pong is the most played activity for our physical education classes. This is because students do not have a traditional gym. The space we use is a cafeteria.
The new paddles will help ensure that we don't run out during the school year.
I'm constantly trying to glue together broken paddles every year to make them last. This takes time away from lesson planning and carrying out other important duties. I know that with a new inventory of paddles, this will last us for the year without having to worry.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
