What does it mean to be #teamJEC? As part of this year’s #teamJEC initiative, JEC Elementary and Middle School students participated in an incredible team-building experience. Group challenges included flipping a mat from one side to the other while the entire class stood on it, and passing a marble across the gym through a continuous series of pipes held by teammates. Communication was key as students worked together to strategize and regrouped to try again when their initial approach didn’t succeed. This skill set—working as a team to accomplish a goal—applies on the field, in the classroom, in meetings and inspires #teamJEC’s approach for every child.
