My Project

Dear Donors,

We are so thankful for you support towards physical education at RBES.

7 years ago, we developed and implemented the first PE program from scratch with very limited supplies and equipment. There is currently no allocated budget towards PE, and your help will not only broaden students opportunities to continue their interests, but open doors to trying new sports, games, and activities that could shape their healthy lifestyles for the future. Our goal is to provide students with the adequate equipment needed to successfully complete the K-5 PE curriculum while ensuring students are learning and having fun safely.

Physical education plays a crucial role in developing the physical, mental, and emotional well-being of our students. Not only does it help students develop strength, coordination, and endurance, but it also teaches them valuable skills such as teamwork, discipline, and communication.

Physical education helps to reduce stress, increase self-esteem, and promote healthy habits. Studies have shown that physical activity is linked to improved academic performance, so physical education can be an important part of helping our students reach their full potential.

Your donations are an invaluable resource that allow us to provide our students with the necessary resources to participate in an age appropriate physical education program. Thank you so much for your generosity and dedication to making a difference in the lives of our students.

Sincerely,

The Physical Education Department

Mr. Faba PS 125 Ralph Bunche Grades 3-5
