My Project

We are requesting sports equipment that we can use during recess. 80 students are currently sharing 2 basketball balls. The students desperately want to play soccer, football, volleyball, dodgeball, and basketball with their friends. A lot of the students have wanted to work on cardio and have asked for jump ropes. With our current lack of recess equipment, students resort to standing near fences and talking. We also need a speaker and microphone to do group cardio class or group fitness class outside during recess or PE class. Students need more group activities for outdoor recess!!

The extra movement that this equipment will encourage can help our students improve their mental health and regain focus for rigorous academic tasks.
