The Papillion La Vista South High School Football team provided an exciting conclusion to the summer school enrichment program by engaging with younger students in spirited physical activities. The high school athletes encouraged elementary and middle school participants through interactive games where students could playfully "tackle" their older role models while receiving enthusiastic cheers and encouragement.

The football players created an atmosphere of celebration and support, chanting individual student names and fostering connections that transcend traditional grade-level boundaries. This interaction provided younger students with positive role models while giving high school athletes meaningful opportunities to develop leadership and mentorship skills.

The event exemplifies how PLCS athletics programs contribute to the broader educational mission by building community connections and promoting positive relationships between students of different ages. These interactions help create a supportive school culture where older students actively invest in the success and engagement of younger peers.

The football team's participation in summer school enrichment activities demonstrates the district's holistic approach to education, where athletic programs serve not only competitive purposes but also contribute to character development and community building throughout the school system.
