My Students

My students are special because even though our school sits in one of the lowest economic and crime-ridden areas in the country, they do not allow that to hold them back.

They persevere and do not allow where they come from dictate where they are going!

For many of them, they have great PRIDE in representing our school and community against other schools who might have more than we do. They do not allow this to be an excuse but a driving force to their success!

My Project

Our project will be used to buy needed pads that protect our student-athletes that play football knee's, hips, thighs, and butt.

These pads are a MUST and without them, our student-athletes will not be able to take the field.

We have a few of these pads in our inventory but not enough for all our players. With these new sets, we will be able to outfit all our 100 PLAYERS.

These pads are the one set of pads that referee's make sure each player has and is fitted properly.If they do not have they are asked to come out of game and cannot return until pads are on correctly.
