Science and Tennis

Funded Feb 18, 2009

Mere words can not thank you enough for your very generous donation to our school. The tennis equipment that you donated has been getting so much use. We have used it with several classes from grades 3 through 6 so far and I plan on using with the lower grades as well. The children love learning about science (forces and motion, work) by playing a sport.

With all of the current budget cuts, there would never be money set aside for experimental programs. Not only are my science students getting to learn about science in an exciting way, but they are also learning a new sport. Tennis is not a sport you see offered at schools too often. I am also going to use the equipment with my enrichment groups next year.

Your generous donation has made it possible for more than 250 students to have fun and get some very important physical fitness squeezed in. You are the reason why many students will have an even more enriching experience in school.
