Student Athlete Pride

Help me give my students hooded sweatshirts with school logo for a sense of school and team pride!

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Roderick's classroom raised $2,420

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate 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

This project will give every student athlete Girl's Basketball and Boy's Track and Field a hooded sweatshirt which I will have embroidered with our school name and logo. It will give everyone of my student athletes a sense of pride while in our school climate and environment. I have found that when engaged in athletics, grades improve and behaviors improve and it gives each and every student a sense of belonging and purpose. As small as it may seem, it is not. It is a big thing for players and runners. I have been creative in finding ways to get my student athletes school gear through the years because of how important it is for them to feel part of these small communities.
