TWIST

TWIST is a 20 day summer program designed to help students gain social skills, as well as gaining physical skills that will help them to become successful in school and in sports. Students will internalize the 7 fundamental physical skills of Project First Step® as well as learn the correct steps to movement skill such as walking, throwing, kicking, etc. These two areas will help with sport skills later in life and with academic learning now. Students also learn about technology, math, science, literacy and health lessons in a fun, game environment. Each child receives a morning and afternoon snack as well as a USDA approved lunch. They also receive a water bottle and shirt.

SCORE

SCORE is the next step after TWIST. Once the child has learned the movement skills of TWIST, they can now put them to use by learning about different sports (including strategy) without the professional having to teach much skills, just reviewing it. Students will also learn about math and science, technology, drug and alcohol prevention, and also be given some insight into several different career choices that they can make. During the entire program, the same social character skills will be stressed to all students.
