For many CESJDS students, sports teams provide an opportunity to be a part of a smaller community within the larger school. Senior Soleil Eschenlauer has been on the soccer team since the beginning of her high school experience. Eschenlauer remembers the older teammates who encouraged her in the sport throughout the years, and as a senior this year she is excited to do the same for younger players. “Being part of a team is a very meaningful aspect of this sport and it helps me support the younger athletes,” Eschenlauer said. “I can also share with them my experiences with soccer and school in general.”
