High school athletics are an effective tool in teaching young people the skills that will help them succeed in life. Being involved in athletics, however, requires much of those who participate, through their commitment of time and energy. Therefore, the Academic Resource Center (ARC) is available to Skyline student-athletes to provide opportunities for these active young people to grow academically. Services offered through the ARC include eligibility monitoring, computer lab instruction, peer tutoring in all subject areas, and mentor guided educational planning. High school can be challenging, but with a game plan and a commitment to excellence, we know the student-athlete can win both on and off the field! GAMING VOLUNTEERS NEEDED IN MAY.

SABC is partnering with ASAN (All Senior All Night) for the annual Ford Drive For Your School fundraiser on Saturday, May 14, 11am-2pm. For each driver, Ford will donate $20 to the school (half to ASAN and half to SABC). This fundraiser has the potential to net $6,000 total for these two programs to share! SABC will offer 50% of its share as an incentive bonus for the two Skyline Teams generating the most participating drivers: 75% (up to $1,125) will go to the team that brings in the most drivers, and 25% (up to $375) will go to the team that brings in the second-most drivers. Each driver will be asked to designate a Skyline team when signing up for a test drive. Drivers do not need to be a student-athlete or a parent of a student-athlete. They must simply show their support for your team. We need volunteers at the event to register drivers. Each volunteer will be able to designate a team to count towards the incentive!
