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

Thank you for looking into this project for my student athletes. I am the Head Volleyball Coach at our school.

This tool will provide my athletes and all other athletes on campus with the ability to keep track of their vertical power numbers.

They will be able to see all of the work they have been doing in the off season.

My student athletes love to be challenged and love even more to break their own personal records. When they do this, their confidence continues to grow in athletics.

Thank you for looking into this project!
