I want to thank you for your investment and helping students to be successful in Physical Education.  The grant allowed me to provide engaging cardio activities for the students.  The outcomes from the grant are numerous as listed below.   

 

 The Learning Environment is Improved by:

 

  • Enhanced Learning Opportunities:  I was able to create a more dynamic and engaging learning environment for students by purchasing the new equipment from this grant.

 

  • Increased Access to Equipment:  All students were able to be engaged in all activities regardless of any outside factors as this grant allowed access to the necessary equipment to succeed.

 

  • Reduced Financial Strains:  The grant alleviated the need to purchase equipment out of pocket or from school funds.  Schools can then allocate those funds for other needs.

 

 

Student Engagement and Outcomes were enhanced by:

 

  • There is Greater Student Participation:

 

Having the right equipment and enough equipment can foster more creativity and engagement which will lead to better educational outcomes. 

 

  • Student Achievement is Improved:

 

When students have access to quality equipment it can help to develop a greater understanding of concepts and improve their overall participation in activities.
