The OKC Comets MVP Program: Encouraging STEM Education is a free, easy-to-use and powerful education tool for second-, third- and fourth-grade teachers presented by Devon Energy. Used in classrooms across Oklahoma since 2017, the MVP Program helps teachers motivate students to learn and participate inside and outside the classroom by recognizing and rewarding students for their achievements.
Parents of participating students have shared recent success stories of their children's participation in the MVP Program.
"The OKC Comets MVP Program has had a tremendous impact on my son. It has helped build their confidence, teamwork and discipline both on and off the field," a second grader's parent from Britton Elementary said. "We truly appreciate all the dedication and effort that goes into making this program a success. It's made a meaningful difference in our lives."
"The MVP program has empowered my child to believe in herself and know that she can achieve anything she puts her mind on with determination and perseverance," a fourth grader's parent from Kingsgate Elementary said.
"My son has always had an advanced interest in how everything works and the program has encouraged him to expand his knowledge!" a second grader's parent from Cesar Chavez Elementary said.
Along with access to MVP Field Day, participating students and teachers received tickets to a Comets home game and a limited edition MVP hat.
Select students also earned once-in-a-lifetime experiences, including a chance to throw out a first pitch before an OKC Comets game, participate in Junior PA to announce a Comets player during the game, deliver the rosin bag pregame or participate in on-field games along with receiving tickets for their family to attend a Comets game.
