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

These materials will help our students learn and compete in a sport such as baseball. We want to encourage them to live a life full of exercise and motivate them to open new doors using sports as a leeway to help them get through college, giving them a boost for scholarships.

Sports will teach our students how to work as a team and teach them discipline on and off the field.

Due to limited spacing at our school these nets will be perfect for hitting while retaining and reusing baseballs. Also, what other way to hit these baseballs than with an aluminum bat.

Teaching our scholars sportsmanship will boost their characters and teach them to hold each other accountable. Our scholars are so talented and they just need the right equipment and chances to show the world.

Grades 6-8
