Our SBEC Elementary
Division is off to a great start for the 2012-2013 school year.
In addition to the academic offerings that
are provided to our students during the school day, many of our students in
grades five and six are involved in our afterschool extracurricular sports
activities such as football, cross country, volleyball, and cheerleading.
Others in grades JK-6 are involved in our
intramural soccer program or in the afterschool recreational activity programs
such as chess, kidsart, karate, gymnastics, pom poms, piano lessons and
computer explorers.
In all of the above
mentioned activities, some 425 of our students in the Elementary Division stay
after school at least one afternoon per week to participate in an
extracurricular activity.
Participation
in these special
activities allows our
students the opportunity to develop
specific activity related skills as well as life
skills such as self-confidence, sportsmanship, time management, team work,
responsibility and reliability.
I would
like to thank Sherri Howard, our Elementary Athletic Director and Tammy Sousan,
the Director of our After School Childcare programs for making it possible for
these special activities to be offered to our students.
