Funner Olympics - Tuesday, May 21st
On Tuesday, May 21st our class will be spending the day at Hersey High School. Hersey set up a fair called the “Funner Olympics.” Students will be paired with a Hersey high school student and will get to try out games, movement activities, sensory activities and many more things. Our classroom staff and related service will be there as well to support the class. Students will be provided a hot dog/chips for lunch. If your student does not eat hot dogs or has dietary restrictions, please send lunch from home.
Staff Spotlight
Special Olympics Coaches & Volunteers
Big Thank You to all of our staff who volunteered their time to support Miner students during Special Olympics this year. It's because of your selfless dedication, our students are able to have opportunities to participate in activities that many of our students are not able to typically do. You are appreciated!
