Every Tuesday afternoon, Destiny Wooley sticks her head through her racoon-fur-covered quiver strap and slings it across her shoulder, grabs her purple bow and heads to archery practice with 33 of her peers. The 9-year-old joins the rest of the archery team at Sardis Enrichment School along a yellow rope line, 10 yards away from the 3D models of animals like a hyena, cheetah, bear and deer they will be shooting at for practice that day. Coach Frank Barroqueiro gives them a pep talk before they notch, dock and loose their arrows.
