Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
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
The volleyballs we are requesting will make a significant impact on student learning by enhancing both physical education and teamwork skills.
Having quality equipment allows students to develop fundamental motor skills, hand-eye coordination, and overall fitness in a structured and engaging way.
Additionally, volleyball fosters important life skills such as communication, collaboration, and perseverance, which are valuable beyond the classroom. With adequate resources, all students will have equal opportunities to participate actively, improving their confidence and enthusiasm for physical activity.
Ultimately, these volleyballs will create a more inclusive and effective learning environment.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
