Sports

WINGS students will participate in outdoor activities every day.  Activities range from playground games like handball and dodgeball to sports such as soccer and basketball.  These activities are designed to teach students new skills and practice those they already know.  Our goal is to create a love for physical activity and help develop healthy habits.  Last year our upper grade students enjoyed some healthy competition during our intramural sports.  A few sites even took home the tournament trophies!

Social-Emotional Learning (SEL):

Through a variety of activities, students will develop self-awareness, self-control, and interpersonal skills that are vital for school, and everyday life.

The program’s goal is to support students as they become critical problem solvers and lifelong learners to create a better future. The WINGS After School Program provides added resources for our students to participate in their community to identify and creatively address needs. We're excited to have your child join us for this thrilling program as they, too, have opportunities to Wonder • Inspire • Nurture • Grow • Succeed!
