EBB VA Tutoring Program In Action
The Virginia Branch of Education before Basketball has started its tutoring program for our student/athletes. We are a firm believer in student first athlete second and we are dedicated to holding our participants to these standards. We offer a FREE, but educational and informative tutoring program with knowledgeable tutors who are loyal volunteers. This is what definitely sets us apart from the programs that stress athletics over academics.
EBB Parent/Player Meeting
On March 14, 2015 EBB held its first Parent/Player for the girls program. It was held at the Center for Open Science in Charlottesville, VA. The meeting was not only informative it was also educational, thanks in part to the extraordinary staff of the Center for Open Science, who took time out of their schedules to provide us with an orientation/demonstration of what the center is all about. A Special Thanks goes out to the following: Dana, Jeff, Sara, Lyndsy and whole Center for Open Science crew. Also Special Thanks to the parents and young ladies who came out in the rain to sign up for this season.
