Recess For All

Help me give my students recess activities such as basketballs, soccer balls, jump ropes, and sidewalk chalk.

This project expired on June 13, 2023.

My Project

My students work so hard throughout the day, so when it’s time for recess they are ready for a break! We have playground equipment, however our classroom is in need of new sports equipment to make recess even more fun!

My students would love to play basketball, soccer, or a game of kickball at recess, however some of my students would rather draw on the sidewalk, jump rope, or blow bubbles with their friends.

I'm wanting all of my students to be able to enjoy their recess time. This grant will help provide them with several different options to help them stay active and healthy.
