My Project

Investing in Our Future, One Rep at a Time!

The heart of our high school beats strong, thanks in part to our weight room.

This vital space serves as the training ground for 640 dedicated students, both athletes and non-athletes, who push their limits and build strength for their physical and mental well-being. Even our passionate staff members utilize this space to prioritize their health and fitness.

But our weight room, despite its impact, is struggling. Outdated equipment and limited resources hold back its potential. That's why we're launching the "Pump Up the Pride" weight room project!

Investing in the weight room is an investment in the future of our school:

• Stronger athletes: Improved training translates to better performance and reduced injury risk on the field.

• Healthier students: Weight training builds confidence, promotes physical literacy, and combats chronic health issues.

Mr. Johnson will only receive his materials if this project is fully funded by June 6.
