My Project

As a special education program, we dream to host an incentive filled day of fun filled with carnival nostalgic treats and games during a field day event. Help us give our students a fun filled day where they can use their preferred method of communication to increase their social skills and interact with their peers, outdoors.

Special education students take part in 12 month learning programs and as a school community, we would like to provide a day and future days to come to provide our students with a fun and engaging outdoor experience.
