Fall Student-Athletes of the Month
Live Oak recently honored two Student-Athletes of the Month to recognize their hard work and leadership skills in the classroom and in athletics. Seventh grader Coleman P. and eighth grader Kyelle G. were recognized this Fall.
Our first recipient, seventh grader Coleman P., participates on the Live Oak cross country team this year. Coleman was interviewed and asked about his thoughts on academics and athletics. Here were his responses:
問：你從體育或學術中學到了什麼，並能夠應用於其他領域？
A: Something I learned from athletics that I apply to academics is to be open to new concepts. As a soccer player, my team is constantly adapting our strategies to be able to work better together. I have to be open and flexible, and this can apply to writing, reading, or math.
問：你最喜歡的科目是什麼？
A: My favorite school subject will change from time to time, but currently, the subject I enjoy most is science. We are learning a lot about the earth and I enjoy that.
問：你有學術或運動榜樣嗎？如果是這樣，是誰，為什麼？
A: My athletic role model would probably be Lionel Messi, because of all the challenges that he faced being a shorter than average player.
Our second recipient, eighth grader Kyelle G., participates on the Live Oak volleyball team this year. Kyelle was also interviewed on some of these same topics and here were her responses:
問：學術和體育之間有什麼相似之處？
A: I think that something that is similar between academics and athletics is that they both take skill, but you can also practice both of them and get better.
問：你發現自己在體育和學術上都同樣努力嗎？如果沒有，你更努力地工作哪一個？
A: I think I work equally in both academics and athletics, but I obviously have more fun in athletics.
問：你最喜歡的運動是什麼？
A: My favorite sport to play is probably soccer, because I’ve been playing soccer since kindergarten, but I also do enjoy volleyball a lot.
