Archery is finally here, Mustangs, and it’s better than ever! All of the P.E. teachers are incredibly excited to teach everyone this new sport. According to Mr.Branson, “Archery brings a great challenge to students with focus, concentration, and being persistent.”
The teachers are nervous about the kids getting hurt, but all of the teachers say that they are very excited and nervous but they know that the students are responsible and will respect the unit of archery.

It brings a great challenge to kids and teaches them patience , and to have good focus, concentration, and persistence.”
