Today, we celebrate the individuals who excel both in the classroom and on the field, student-athletes. Started by the National Consortium for Athletics and Sports in 1987 and celebrated each year on April 6th, National Student-Athlete Day honors the dedication, effort, and achievements of all current and former student-athletes. It also promotes the positive merits of sport, student-athletes as a whole, and the positive effect they both have on society. Support the student-athletes in your life today and every day by cheering them on both on and off the field. #StudentAthleteDay
