Engaged learning for elementary schoolers.
|
SCORES Core teams are built to support students' physical, social and academic development in the critical after school hours. Poet-athletes engage in both technical and team-building soccer activities throughout all SCORES seasons. In the fall, poet-athletes experiment with different forms of poetry and take steps to find their unique voice through spoken word and public performance. In the spring, these same teams work together to research, plan and implement a service-learning project in their community.
