Recess Activity Supplies

Help me give my students adequate recess equipment for my middle school students and special needs students!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Sanfilippo's classroom raised $720

This project is fully funded

My Project

Our school has 500 student enrolled this year, and we only have a dozen or so balls and/or recess activities. Often enough our special needs students are overlooked with recess equipment, but I was able to get requests from the teachers that work with the special student so that they can enjoy recess as much as their able-bodied peers.

Specifically, my middle school students are in need of adequate recess materials.

All students learn better and are better students overall when they have time to release energy, laugh with friends, and get fresh air (aka - Recess). My school has some supplies, but we are in need of more so that all classes can enjoy recess.
