MASL for Women

 Of course I am already asking when we will see the women of the MASL play. 

Empire Strykers Game Wednesday

Next home game day for the Empire Strykers is this Wednesday at 7:05p.m. at the Toyota Arena in Ontario, California. For more information, you can visit https://www.theempirestrykers.com. The official league for the Strykers team is MASL which stands for Major Arena Soccer League. If you follow the Strykers Facebook page, you can catch links that allow you to log into Twitch.tv to watch live games sometimes. Otherwise, you can just sign up or log into Twitch.tv and follow MASL_soccer to catch the MASL games. It's a nice free way to be able to attend the games and interact if you can't be there in person.

Public School Education Specialized

 School for my kids has been an adventure. I anticipated for them to go to public school for elementary and private school for H.S. originally. Then covid happened and plans started changing. A program was available for us that was not usually apparent. The Independent Study Program through the school district was introduced to us. The students receive the same curriculum as public school kids and it's offered through the public school. The students meet with one another and their teacher virtually for 30 minutes + per day. 

The program consists of a small group of students who will be in the same class throughout their entire education K-12 unless certain factors change such as the students move, etc. The students do the same work as public school students, but the schedule is more flexible and they're able to work from home. Apparently charter schools and home school programs receive financial support for students who do their work from home so this, I'd say is the one factor that needs attention with the Independent Study program as there is no financial support available. 

This program is amazing for students who are also athletes and need specialized hours to dedicate to their sport, as school goals can also be accomplished accordingly. I'm thankful for this program offered to the students through the school district because it allows the students to work at their own pace and learn the traditional information in the comfort of their own space. As an educator, I appreciate this type of flexibility within the public education system.
