Advised by Mr. Seryapov, the eSports team competes in video games online. This year’s main games are Rocket League, Valorant, Mario Kart, and Super Smash Bros, but we are always open to try new games that members might be interested in. These games tap into competitive and social fundamentals of human nature and, alongside an eSports Team, can be utilized to teach online etiquette and sportsmanship through a relevant mechanism that is already engaging to students.
The goals of the eSports Team are as follows:
Model acceptable and productive online behavior allowing students to become conscientious digital citizens.
Promote a safe and open environment for students with similar interests to form new friendships, learn valuable interpersonal skills - overall promoting social interaction within the team and personal growth.
Use video games as a medium to teach sportsmanship qualities and values to students.
Encourage students to interact with the online world in a safe manner.
eSports meets in the fall and spring. If you would like to join, please get in touch with Mr. Seryapov.
