My Project

The students in my school are full of energy, wonder, and enthusiasm. They come from various cultures and speak different languages, and many of their families are struggling economically. They attend a culturally diverse school where 100% of the students receive a free or reduced-price lunch in Washington.

Aside from the cultural and economic differences in our student population, you'll find that our outstanding students are eager to learn and are trying to build successful lives that will be happy and productive.

I am requesting volleyballs so our students can practice volleyball during our PE time. Students will be able to get in a lot of practice and have fun if they have the materials needed to do so. When students get a lot of repetitions, they experience greater success. They will learn to love sports and having a net that can be adjusted will allow for students to play multiple sports such as tennis, volleyball, and pickleball to name a few. These are some of the sports students can play throughout their lives and be active adults.

Our nation has a problem with obesity and many diseases which are due to a lack of activity level in our society.

Help me get these kids active and successful so they go on to lead active lives. Without your health you have nothing.
