Basketball
The
student athletes on the Fletcher Maynard Basketball team put the same
energy and focus into building their individual skills and team ability
as they do in learning their material in the classroom. The team
emphasizes personal goals, and individual contribution and learning
alongside team goals, and collaboration and support. We teach our
student athletes that while they all may not start with the same level
of skill and experience (although this is a middle school program we
often include 4th and 5th graders due to our small numbers) through
dedication, hard work, openness to learning from and sharing with
others; they can all achieve excellence. We also connect our efforts to
the classroom and show students that the same attitudes that make them
successful on the basketball court are equally applicable and can lead
to success in the classroom. Though our program is relatively small,
our boys and girls have regularly performed well in the regular season
and playoffs and have sent many great players on to high school teams.
