New PE Equipment!

My Students

My students come from a very diverse background. They are very energetic and eager to learn. As the PE teacher at my school, I get to see almost every student on campus, and they love to be active.

My students want more sporting options for PE at school.

They really enjoy trying new things and being active is very important to all of them. They understand the need to be active to be healthy, and I want to make being active as fun as possible!

My Project

Who plays lacrosse? Not many people I know do. That's why I want these sticks. I want my students to be able to play sports that they have never played before.

If I get these lacrosse sticks donated, my students will learn a new sport, and they will be exercising in the process, which is something that all students need more of.

Unfortunately, the budget does not allow for me to buy a lot of new equipment. That is why I'm here, hoping to get these donated.

I want to create an environment where kids want to play games and learning new ones is a great way to do that.
