• Preparing for Pilates

  Funded Aug 5, 2016

  Dear Donors,

  I can't express in words how thankful we are to receive these materials! Our students were jumping up and down with excitement when they saw the new equipment! The students who aren't in physical education this year were contemplating how they could enroll in the class! The kids that had already taken the class were explaining it to the other students who were listening with wide eyes and smiles! These resources will not only help our students be more active, but it will encourage them to find activities that they love to sustain healthy lifestyles for the rest of their lives!”

• Assisting Our Athletic Training Room

  Funded May 11, 2016

  Dear Donors,

  Thank you so much for supporting our project. This project was amazing! Now we have the materials we need to have a great and fun educational experience! The athletic training room is now super organized and clean! We already have the white board up on the wall and ready to go for next year. The binders came in and we will be using them to keep track of our check offs and our community service hours! This project was helpful in assisting us to make our experience at school better and we are extremely grateful. The Swiffer Wet Jet is amazing! The athletic training room smells cleaner and fresher than ever which makes us happy too! We have two students that love to clean the floor with it, and we always joke about who gets the honor of cleaning! Seriously though, we can't thank you enough for your support!

  Thanks!”

• Hats Off to Hardwork!

  Funded Apr 13, 2016

  Dear Friends,

  Your support of this project has been simply amazing! These students now have amazing hats and sweaters to keep them safe from the elements while they learn about athletic training and sports medicine! These students work so incredibly hard, and I am so thankful that you have chosen to support them by providing them with these amazing materials! So far, the students have been wearing the hats non stop. At our spring game, the students were able to wear the hats for the first time. The hats protected them from the sun and the bugs! Next fall when the students return to school, they will be wearing their sweaters to school and outdoors to sporting events! They needed these things in order to keep themselves safe and healthy. We are so thankful for your support and can't imagine our athletic training program without these stellar resources!

  You guys rock!”

• Football Team Flags

  Funded May 2, 2016

  Dear Donors,

  These materials are amazing! They arrived so quickly and packed perfectly! The students were so excited to see the Amazon boxes because they already knew it was their flags and field equipment! The pylons look amazing and are perfect for our soon to be new football field! These will ensure that no one will miss where the end zones start and finish! We are hoping that this means we will be scoring even more touch downs next year! The flags look great too! The students love the colors and are super excited to use them during practices and games! This has been an amazing project and you have really helped show these students that they are important and people out there care about them! Thank you for providing these materials to such a wonderful group of kids! You guys are fabulous!”

  We, the athletic training students, would like to thank you greatly for your very generous donations to our program. We've been able to initiate our learning with the materials already!

• Wrestling Our Way to the Top!

  Funded Aug 21, 2015

  First off, I would like to say thank you. Your donation has enabled us to give these wrestlers a much needed resource, a safe mat for competitions. There is no way for me to tell you how much of an impact you've made, so I'll let the students speak for themselves. Upon seeing the new mat, one of our sophomore wrestlers started jumping around and saying how excited he was to get on the mat and wrestle. You have shown this group of student athletes that people care about them and their sport. Thank you so much for standing up with these students and empowering them to be better athletes, students and people! You have given this team a foundation to stand on while teaching these young athletes about school spirit and pride! Join us for our home opener to see the athletes in action on the new wrestling mat. It is state of the art and a wonderful representation of school spirit! Go Knights!”

• Professional Development to Enhance Classroom Magic

  Funded May 11, 2015

  Donors, thank you so much for your amazing support! As a teacher, sometimes it feels as though there is little importance placed on my chosen career field. Often times, people see teachers as those who have chosen to follow an easy path. Thank you for not only realizing that teaching is extremely challenging, but thank you for standing with me in order to improve education for today's youth! With your donation, I have been able to acquire an amazing new resource, the macbook air computer. Already with this computer, I have taken two courses and begun to work on new lesson plans for next fall. I am so excited to take the new information I am learning and translate it into the classroom! My students lives will be forever changed for the better, because you have decided to support me as a teacher! Thank you for your unwavering confidence, and I look forward to taking this opportunity to lift up the students who are the leaders of tomorrow.”

• "Dare to Be Great" Physical Activity for Life!

  Funded Dec 10, 2014

  Donors, your amazing contribution has made a huge impact on our entire student body! I am pleased to tell you that the new sound system has been fully installed in our gymnasium and is being used in multiple ways! Our physical education department has already begun to use the system for classes. Students in personal fitness and team sports have already enjoyed incorporating music into their physical activities. This addition has made the classes more enjoyable for students and has invigorated everyone with passion for athletics! In addition to touching the lives of our students, your donation has also inspired our student athletes! Our Men's volleyball team was the first athletic team to use the system to play music during the warm up period of their senior night game. This was the last volleyball game that the seniors would be playing in their home gym. Thanks to you and your donation, it was a night to remember, filled with music and excitement!

  Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, each staff member and student will be greatly affected by your generosity!”
