eSports
eSports Program:
Oxford Preparatory Academy partnered with Microsoft in June 2019 to begin our eSports Club! Through this partnership we have been able to offer our 3rd-8th grade students a fun, engaging, inclusive and educational eSports League. In this after school club, students compete against each other in video games such as League of Legends and Hearthstone in a controlled, extracurricular environment.
Students have an opportunity to learn valuable skills that will serve them well throughout their life. Among the skills developed through eSports are the 5Cs: Communication, Collaboration, Critical thinking, Creativity, Character and managing success and failure.
Program Goals:
- Engage students in extracurricular behavior
- Provide a fun, competitive and fair environment for students
- Promote teamwork, good communication skills, and other soft skills
- Prepare students for eSports Leagues and Clubs in High School
- Introduce students to new career opportunities
