Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Pickleball is a fun, fast-growing sport that keeps students active while building teamwork, coordination, and confidence. With pickleball nets, my students will have the opportunity to engage in a dynamic, inclusive activity that promotes lifelong fitness and social development. Many of my students don’t always have access to structured physical activities outside of school, making it essential to provide them with opportunities to move, play, and learn within our school setting.

This project will help create an engaging way for students to stay active while developing critical motor skills, communication, and sportsmanship.

Pickleball is an easy-to-learn sport that allows students of all skill levels to participate, ensuring everyone feels included and supported. By incorporating pickleball into our physical education program and recess activities, we can encourage a love for movement and teamwork in a fun and exciting way.

Your generous support will bring energy, joy, and movement to our school community, helping students learn through play and stay active for years to come!
