My Project

My gymnasium is very busy.

Each school day it is used every period , often by large groups.

My students are amazing and they really enjoy being active and being in the gym. They are ages 13-18, grades 9-12.

Our badminton class units and lunchtime club are extremely popular. The badminton equipment pack will enable more and more kids to play.

Ultimate Frisbee is also a favorite unit and club recreational sport that my students enjoy playing. The disc sets will enable more students to participate and get more small group throwing and catching practice.

Our equipment is used very frequently and so often needs replacing.

Donors Choose has always great resource for our gym.
