FOCUS AREAS

number 1

21st Century Skills/Growth Mindset

21st-century skills like critical thinking, creativity, and collaboration, along with a growth mindset, are developed through our hands-on, project-based curriculum. These skills and attitudes are also integrated into our basketball program, aligning with our classroom learning approach.

number 2

Social Emotional Learning

Inspire Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) We help students develop emotional awareness, healthy relationships, and responsible decision-making by integrating SEL into daily activities like the "weather report," team-building exercises, and our basketball program.

number 3

Health and Wellness

Promote Health and Wellness as Lifelong Habits. We support students’ physical, mental, and emotional well-being through sports, education, and mentorship, encouraging healthy lifestyles and personal growth. Our basketball activities help students build lifelong healthy habits.

number 4

Service to Others

Foster Service to Others is the act of giving time, effort, and resources to support and uplift individuals or communities in need. We aim to deepen student engagement in service through volunteer opportunities, problem-solving initiatives, and real-world applications.
