USTA Tennis Clinic at SWS
Last Friday, Andrew Waltrop held a tennis clinic with SPLASH and other staff in our gym. A related grant will provide our school with $500. worth of tennis gear. We plan to teach our students tennis so they can take full advantage of the recently refurbished tennis courts adjoining our school.
Mr. Dallas and Mr. Ray were on campus this week to give our gym doors a face lift!
