DoDEA knows this and goes to great lengths to provide the growth experiences that occur in athletic competition. The students at Alconbury have created a web page to showcase sports in DoDEA .
Team sports contribute to the development of high school students.
DoDEA undertakes a rigorous interscholastic sports program to insure that students have comparable experiences with their conterparts at civilian schools throughout the United States. Given the locations and sizes of some DoDEA schools, the challenge of offering a high quality sports program can place high demands on students, coaches, school administrators and the military communities in which we live.
