My Project

So many students are so engrossed in technology that they don’t get the daily physical activity they need. Our students want to interact with others. They want physical activity and often expel that energy at the wrong times in the wrong way. We are asking for football pinnies, a football throwing net, footballs and a field yard line marker.

We have a sports club, where students attend and interact with other students while playing different sports every week.

The same students who are on a team this week may very well be adversaries next week. This teaches students sportsmanship and comradery in a way only experience can. Developing these skills not only helps them physically, but socially and mentally too. Our students are eager and ready to positively engage. They are special and deserving.
