My Project

This physical education equipment has the potential to transform the athletic experience at my school. As the first all-girls public school on Staten Island, I am eager to empower my young leaders through participation in sports and physical education classes.

Currently, our school shares space with two other institutions, which means that our physical education classes take place in various locations, including the gym, a classroom, and the cafeteria.

The equipment outlined in this project will greatly enhance the cardiovascular fitness of my students. My students have a strong enthusiasm for jump rope activities; however, the jump ropes we currently possess are too small for their needs. Introducing these adjustable ropes would be a fantastic improvement. Additionally, I am currently lacking seven mats for each class, so the inclusion of these mats would be incredibly beneficial. We also need footballs.

One of my primary goals is for each student to discover at least one activity they are passionate about in physical education class and continue to pursue it. This initiative will allow them to develop a lasting love for physical activity and wellness.
