John W. Dodd Middle School held a basketball scrimmage pitting students against their teachers as an after-school bonding exercise on the Friday before the Thanksgiving holiday break.
Rotating units of five players took to the hardwood with the overarching goal of building relationships through exercise, fitness and fun. The game accomplished all three as the teachers squeaked past the students by two points in an exciting "next-basket-wins" situation as the clock ran out.
Students and teachers used the opportunity to demonstrate their individual skills and styles on the court as well as their ability to effectively be team players. After the game, everyone lined up for a traditional handshake and hug before posing for a group photo.
