My Project

We are a special education program servicing students with multiple disabilities. We are a transition-based high school with a focus on careers and raising awareness for pre-employment exposure to better prepare our unique students for the world of work.

As an added incentive, we would like to host a fun game day by enjoying a BINGO event as an incentive to engaging in hygiene related lessons and activities for their future employment goals.

By hosting a game day event, we can also prepare our students communication skills by instilling soft skills used in the work place. What’s a better way to get to know your fellow coworkers and boss than playing a fun and engaging game of BINGO. Students who prepare for tomorrow are more likely to succeed and we want them to feel good and smell good as they reach their career goals!
