Join us on Sentinel Soundbytes, the official podcast of the Alabama School of Cyber Technology and Engineering (ASCTE). This series offers a deep dive into the unique experiences and opportunities available at ASCTE, a tuition-free magnet school focused on integrating cyber technology and engineering across all academic disciplines. From the school’s inception to its current status as a leader in STEM education, each episode provides insights into various aspects of life at ASCTE.
In this episode, we sit down with Mr. Matt Massey, President of the Alabama School of Cyber Technology and Engineering, and Mr. Andy Smith, the school’s CFO and COO, to talk about a different side of their leadership: athletics. From coaching multiple sports to helping build entire programs from scratch, Massey and Smith offer a unique look at how extracurriculars play a vital role in ASCTE’s mission.
We dive into the school’s early decisions around launching sports programs, how athletics support student wellness and school branding, and what it means to be a boarding school without a traditional home field—until now. They also give us a behind-the-scenes look at new campus developments like a turf soccer field and the upcoming Sentinel Center. Whether it’s tennis, swimming, robotics, or drama, this conversation highlights the culture of excellence and community that’s being cultivated on and off the field at ASCTE.
