Our school is very excited to have Derek Avera come to our school and present The Above the Line concepts called “The R-Factor” and how this relates to our student athletes and how you as a parent can support your child.  After the overview of the R-Factor Derek will also cover the concept achieving the athletic edge and becoming elite.  Our presenter's Bio is below and an overview of the R-Factor can be found here.    The overview can be found by scrolling down to download the overview as a PDF.  For us it will be focused on athletics not business.

A native Texan who recently returned to the Dallas area, Derek is a proud graduate of Abilene Christian University.
