This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
With limitations in funding and space, the Morris Bulldogs baseball program is looking to be prepared and motivated for the upcoming spring season. Our student-athletes are low income and facing many challenges in and out of the classroom. The Morris Bulldogs participate in the NYC PSAL baseball season and playoff tournament. This program represents all the schools in our campus.
Our goal is to provide the best experience for our student-athletes by giving them equipment that will positively impact their training, performance, and overall well-being.
This baseball program has provided opportunities for students to take the next step and play at the college level. They need a pitching machine to make them better baseball players and to help them build a foundation for their future endeavors.
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
