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 Students
My school is a school that serves students with a variety of special needs, including autism, intellectual disability, and emotionally disturbed. From the outside looking in, people may assume they are not athletic and physically incapable, but they are wrong! Our students compete at the highest levels of competitive sports. We participate (and win) in Special Olympics games, CHAMPS middle school athletics, and run in New York Road Runner events.
Let me win, but if I cannot win, let me be brave in the attempt.
Our students do not back down from a challenge. That is what I love most about this age group and population. They love to be active. They love sports. They love physical education.
My Project
Our amazing students with disabilities at our school have persevered through a difficult two years. As part of our welcome back curriculum, we are focusing on the importance of health and fitness for our PE program.By improving our life long fitness goals, our students will undoubtedly develop healthy habits as well. A treadmill will be an extremely useful tool to increase stability, endurance and strength. Walking or running on a treadmill is an excellent source of exercise that puts less stress on the body than walking or running on a flat surface outdoors. Treadmills also offer the option for careful heart rate and blood pressure monitoring for patients suffering from those issues.
We didn't get this far, to only get this far.
With your support, you'll keep a smile on our students face for a very long time.
More than half of students from low‑income households
