My Project

This project is so important. Our youngest students, K-1, do not have anything to play with in the morning before school. They are so happy to be at school and they have a lot of energy. We need equipment like soccer balls, jump ropes, and hula hoops to get our kids moving. This project will support 113 kindergarten and first grade students while they move their bodies outside!

We all know how important movement is, especially before we head into the building to learn.

This project will get their energy out and get their brains ready for learning. We need equipment outside at recess!
