My Project

Welcome to our recent project for our PE program at TMES in Seattle, WA. I teach PE for grades Kindergarten - 5th grade. We have a wonderful group of diverse students who work hard and love to have fun while learning. We had our first Donors Choose.org project last year and it was amazing! We raised almost $5,000. I was blown away by the generosity and kindness. One of the things we tried to get last year was a set of volleyball standards/poles. Unfortunately, they were on backorder for a very long time and we were unable to get them with that project; however, we were able to utilize that money and buy so many other wonderful pieces of equipment for our PE program. We used several of them today on May 4th for our Star Wars game and the students had a blast!

The good news is that the volleyball set is back in stock!

I desperately want to help our students acquire this new equipment. I just need your help to make it happen. Thank you for reading about our wonderful school. I wish I could share with everyone the joy on our students' faces when they are in PE. They can brighten anyone's day!
