The Steubing Skippers Fitness Club is an afterschool program for 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders to promote physical fitness, teamwork, and community. Through team jumping, students learn how to work well with each other, build confidence and leadership skills. Students succeed through independent thinking, excellent listening, and following directions. As skills mature, students turn to one another for direction and guidance. Team members learn to have fun while practicing self discipline, learning techniques and getting physically fit.
Practice times are Tuesdays from 3-4 p.m. This club meets year-round until the middle of April. This year, our club will have the honor of performing at the NISD NEF Walk on April 1, 2023!
