My Project

The students at our school need more opportunities to experience organized play during gym time, recess, and our attendance incentives Magnificent Mondays and Game Day. The goal for this project is to get the necessary equipment to provide experiences for our students that will help them learn to interact as teams, socialize more effectively, have more opportunities to get exercise and build school community by having a lot of fun at school with classmates and staff. Our students are special to us because many of them are athletic and energetic. We incentive good grades, good behavior, good attendance and promote parent engagement through the use of our Game Days.
