At Santa Maria Junior High School activities were available to all students, but a lack of interest or desire from students to partake in was low. Students who did participatewere only interested through the duration of the club or sport and then lost interest in remaining focused throughout the remainder of the year. Through consistency andgenerating a high level atmosphere for the students we as educators can propel the them, and excel, beyond their own expectations. Parents attended school functions onlyif they received an incentive during the meeting, presentation, etc. It reflected more on school based functions compared to athletic events where they were beingentertained as opposed to receiving useful information.
