My Students

Our students are wonderfully gifted, talented, and hard-working. Our student have a sense of school pride and want to try their hardest on every single activity in which they are involved. The activities they participate in, are a wide variety. They are so special to me and our community.

We have a such a sense of school, and community pride.

It's great to see our students thrive in this environment, and we want to continue to give back to them, more and more. We want to show them how much they mean to us.

My Project

Your donations to this project will go a long way in the development of our students and their ability to use a catch-and-throw game, in a different way. Using lacrosse as a means to improve hand-eye coordination is a great way for the students to practice these skills. Lacrosse is not a sport that is appreciated in our area of the country, but it is slowly catching on.

We will be able to develop skills that some students do not get to practice and use all the time.

They will now have a chance to improve, and be included in a better learning environment!
