SFL In the News: Play Ball, Learn STEM

From the Santa Maria Times:

Every day before lunch, students at Alvin Elementary School wait to get the most anticipated news of the day: whether soccer will be on the menu.

“It’s so fun and adventurous,” said fourth-grader Anzoni Mendoza, 9.

Little do many of the students know, however, the sport is not just an exciting part of recess, but a core part of their education.

A few months ago, the school partnered with Coast 2 Coast Soccer, which offers lunch and after-school programs to more than 1,000 low-income schools across California.
