Over 15 Years Old and Wearing Out Fast—Our Playground Can’t Wait
Did you know our students use the playground an average of 235 minutes each week—almost 4 hours of playtime during the school week? Our current playground is over 15 years old, and it’s time to build one that will grow with our students for the next 20 years.
See the design of our new playground and donate today by scanning the QR code below.
Just $200 per student would raise $120,000 for the new playground!
