Our students are a full spectrum with a diverse campus in race, culture, socioeconomic status, and interests. Our campus serves approximately 635 students, grades 7th thru 8th and between the ages of 12 to 14. Ethnically our students are approximately 87% minorities with 45% being Latin American, 26% African American, and 13% Asian and Pacific Islander. 25% of our students are currently English Language Learners.
We have 10% of our population receiving services from our Special Education department.
We have students coming from all over the district including many who are also English language learners. Our students come from a variety of cultures and socio-economic levels which means that most students have limited access to technology at home.

The bag will be used to carry the volleyballs.

Sadly, current volleyballs are worn out and need to be replaced. New equipment will ensure we can keep our students' interest in the game of volleyball. Also, with more and new equipment we can further develop our lesson planning to meet our students' interest.
