The Missouri National Archery in the Schools Program helps build stronger, more confident and accomplished kids.
FAYETTE, Mo.—Teachers, help your students learn responsibility and focus like never 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on May 21 at Fayette High School. The session is free, but pre-registration by May 20 is required.
“Nearly everyone, regardless of age, size or physical ability can succeed at archery,” said MDC Outdoor Skills Specialist Brian Flowers. “This training will give teachers the necessary skills to start an archery program in their school.”
Upon completion of the day-long training, participants will become a certified MoNASP instructor.
MoNASP is modeled on the national archery in the schools program, which began with a simple idea; teach kids the basics of archery as part of a school curriculum. MoNASP teaches Olympic style target archery to students in grades 4-12. Currently, 350 Missouri schools and over 80,000 students participate in this life time sport.
Statistics show school archery programs improve school attendance, increase participants self-esteem and physical activity helps kids relate to learning subject matter and gets kids outdoors to discover nature.
Fayette High School is located at 510 N. Cleveland in Fayette.
To register for either workshop, please fill out an online form found here. For more information, contact Flowers at Brian.Flowers@mdc.mo.gov or 573-815-7901, ext. 3388.
