Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Our school doesn't have a gymnasium but our students are beaming with energy and love physical education. We are asking for portable, adjustable, and space saving basketball equipment such as balls, ball pump for the balls so that our students can participate in engaging physical education. Physical Education provides students with meaningful opportunities to develop essential physical and social skills. Our P.E. classes are inclusive and the lessons are geared to students of many abilities. We are asking for equipment such as Rimball Goal Basketball Hoop and various size balls so that all students can be successful and pump for the balls. These items will be used directly by students to enhance their skills.
