This Week at a Glance... Monday, June 13, 2016

Well, our sports seasons are finished for the year.  There were some ups and downs, some highs and lows.  Hopefully, students and coaches came a way from their teams with growth in skills, a closer relationship with God, strength in friendships, peace in dealing with conflicts, and an overall positive vibe from their sporting experience.
I would like to take this time to once again thank our Coaches.  They put so much time, thought, energy, and effort into leading a team.  From planning practices, deciding who will play what and when and where, getting to know their athletes, logistics of travel, paying attention to the physical and mental and spiritual well-being of their team, figuring out how to improve skills, technique and strategy, trying to get people to work together, finding a balance between team dedication, school work, outside work, family life and social life, and also having fun while doing it all.  It is such a big job and I'm sure I missed aspects of it in the list above.  As a school we are so thankful to ALL our coaches for their efforts.  I encourage everyone who was involved on a team to express their thanks to their coaches, assistant coaches, and other helpers. 
Also, I would like to thank the families of the coaches.  It is not always easy to have a spouse/partner/parent who is a coach as they are often gone from home, mentally lost in thought, or busy planning and preparing.  Thank you so much for allowing your significant other to coach our athletes.
Thank you to those family members who supported their teams with willingness to drive and chaperone, for coming out to cheer the teams on, and positive encouragement.
And to take an image from the Helping Hands website... it truly does "take a village"...

Have a good summer everyone!  Best wishes for those students who are graduating and moving on from CCHS!
