What is eSports? Esports is short for electronic sports. Esports are competitive video games that can be played individually or as a team. The variety of gameplay and game genre make esports one of the most versatile and popular competitions in the world. It is our goal to use electronic sports as a positive educational and developmental change agent for our students. The Unioto eSports lab is now complete and ready for gameplay. We had 24 high school students and 32 middle school students express interest in participating on the eSports team. Gameplay will begin next week competing against other surrounding school districts and school districts throughout Ohio. There will be a fall and spring season each year lasting approximately 8 weeks. For more information, please contact eSports coach, Travis Schrake at tschrake@gotanks.org. I will post a few pictures of our esports room on our Facebook page.

Students, you woke up this morning. It‘s the perfect day to elevate yourself. Aim up!
Your excuses are your worst enemy. Your goals are your best friend. Treat your goals as you would someone you truly love and care about. Work hard, push through, get your act together, focus on your learning, be a good friend, learn to listen, help others, pay attention to the good, be kind, and most importantly, be responsible. One of the quickest and oftentimes best ways to get better is to stop doing the foolish things that you know to be foolish. Just stop. We all know this. Work at it. It is work, real work. Trust me - your life will improve rapidly! As Maya Angelou once said, “Nothing will work unless you do”. Do you really have anything better to do? Do you? Your goals deserve your attention and focus. Your goals are you. So treat them how you want to be treated!
Have a great weekend and remember...3 days til Monday!! Carry your own weather!! Hard work works!! Audit your circle!! Be grateful!! Go Tanks!!
