My Students

My school is a consolidated school district that covers small, rural communities, and quiet farms. Some of my students travel long distances to school; others live right down the street.

My students are athletes and scholars.

In a small school, students have opportunity to try new skills without tremendous pressure. They multitask. They have big hearts and want to help others. They like to try new things.

My students are quixotic. They want to understand and influence the world around them, while at the same time staying close to home and the surroundings that make sense to them.

My Project

Our student athletes work hard giving everything they have to excel both on the field and in the classroom. They have the determination to train and succeed no matter what.

My student-athletes will be able to train and play like professionals when they have the high quality girdles requested here.

They will be protected and ready to give their best whether it's first and 10 or fourth and inches.

The girdles requested here will provide the safety my student-athletes need while they train their bodies for the rigors of football. Your support will ensure our athletes have the equipment they need to play the game.
