My Project

This project for vertical plate trees will continue to add to the safety and organization of our fitness room for our PE classes. Our fitness room is continuing to grow and we are continuing to add accessories to give students an opportunity to use equipment that they would otherwise never use.

Organization and safety is key in a PE class, especially at a school our size with classes of 30+ for each PE teacher.

As we continue to grow our fitness room and get equipment in, it is pivotal to be able to organize them in the weight room so we can set up successful and safe workouts.
