Program Philosophy

In our volleyball program and in our classrooms, we strive to prepare our students and athletes to be the best and get the most of their abilities - and the result would take care of itself. Our most effective teaching tool is our consistent example, modeling, and upholding of our jacket values. In the alvin volleyball program, our players will not only strive to become better players, but they will ultimately become better people!

"Be more concerned with your character than with your reputation. Character is what you really are; reputation is merely what you are perceived to be." - John Wooden

In our program, we will live by our J.A.C.K.E.T. Values

J - Justified - Everything we do is justified; earned.

A - Accountable - We hold ourselves and each other accountable.

C - Challenge - We challenge ourselves and each other.

K - Kind - We model and expect kindness. And make it a habit.

E - Encourage - We encourage & build each other up. And make it a habit.

T - Tough - We understand that toughness is needed to handle adversity. Struggle builds, molds, and shapes. Never breaks us.
