Team Building/Sportsmanship
"Sportsmanship for me is when a guy walks off the court and you really can't tell whether he won or lost, when he carries himself with pride either way."
-Jim Courier
“None of us, including me, ever do great things. But we can all do small things, with great love, and together we can do something wonderful.”
- Mother Teresa
One of the most important aspects of the Physical Education curriculum is for the students to learn about teamwork and sportsmanship. Many of the students are involved in extracurricular activities and they have to learn to win, lose, and work as a team in order to grow and mature as individuals. The students will spend the first two weeks learning each others' names and building trust and communication skills that they will need for the rest of their lives. They will continue to work on those skills throughout the school year.
"I think sportsmanship is knowing that it is a game, that we are only as a good as our opponents, and whether you win or lose, to always give 100 percent."
-Sue Wicks
