Hoop dreams come alive at Felicity! The Chicago Area Alternative Education League (CAAEL) provides a wonderful opportunity for our students to compete. First year basketball coach, Sol Luskin, knows firsthand that planning, preparation, and execution are the keys to success both on and off the court. Felicity students have been provided an extra layer of motivation to be good citizens, complete their work, and participate in a competitive setting that values leadership and sportsmanship.
After every CAAEL game, it is tradition for the student athletes to award two sportsmanship ribbons to the opposing team. Felicity students have participated in the ribbon ceremony three times now. Those that present the ribbons have gained the unique opportunity to provide specific praise to someone they have just competed against. With a record of 2-1 during the 2017-2018 season, Felicity is poised to have fun and hopefully win a few more games, all while learning how to be humble.
