Wednesday
Sa'eed Nelson (class of 2016), who is currently a junior at American University, made a return visit today, and what a treat! Coach Rodio introduced him, and then Sa'eed was able to tell us about his college experience (in the classroom and on the court) and answer the boys' questions. Sa'eed stayed for lunch, and we got to relive his high school basketball highlights on the big screen. Check out the link below and prepare to be impressed.
After lunch, we were all treated to a lesson on relaxation and its value, courtesy of Ms. Ace. Knowing how to destress and calm ourselves is a lesson that can benefit us for a lifetime. To the boys delight, we finished the day with another game of dodgeball!
"If you're not passing, you're not playing." Sa'eed Nelson
