=​Mission Statement= = = =The Steffon Henry School for Basketball Excellence is a school that believes we can bring the best basketball abilities out of every boy and girl. We believe that basketball can teach teamwork, leadership,partnership, and friendship. Our coaches motivate student/athletes to never give up by constantly putting our moto "NO REST UNTIL BEST" into their heads. Even though basketball is our main focus towards the students we also have regular classes that are up to par with any other magnet high school. Also we are partnered with Temple University so tranistioning from high school to college won`t be as hard because we have volunteers coming in often talking about how college life works. With all the hard ways to "make it" in this world we believe basketball isn`t an easier way but a more enjoyable way. =
