My Students

We are one of the smallest schools in our county in Tennessee which has approximately 45,000 students in its system. Our school is our community. We have one place to eat and it is a Subway in a gas station five minutes from campus.

Our students spend seven years of their life here, learning and maturing.

They graduate and come back to visit campus, usually during an athletic event. Then they get married and send their kids to the same school!

My Project

Our school has had a coed soccer team for the last six years. This will be the first season we field a girl's only soccer team. They are extremely nervous and want to look like a real team. This is where the backpacks come in to play. Uniforms are on the way, now the girls would like to have something to put their gear in to match each other. These backpacks are nice and waterproof. The girls believe they look good and they are extremely functional with places for their cleats, gear, and uniforms. Please consider helping our new program!
