School Story in Action 2024-2025 

November 15, 2024 

This week we would like to highlight our school Volleyball team. Our volleyball team has shown growth in working together and encouraging each other when another teammate is feeling discouraged. We have also been working on passing to others rather than dominating the play. Adults coaching the team have been encouraging using different positive phrases to uplift their teammates such as “You’ve got this”, “Next one”, and “We’ve got this”. Now students are using these phrases on the court during practices and games. This team includes a variety of abilities, and everyone has been encouraging each other. We have emphasized good sportspersonship which has resulted in positive feedback from other schools. Other teams report feeling positive after playing with the Steves team. It has been great to see this growth over the past month and a half.  

This links to our School Story focus in the following way:    

• Steves is a safe learning community where we strive to work together. (Steves School Lens).
