Each year 3rd graders and new students to Upper Campus participate in disability awareness training. The training involves each student rotating through stations that simulate various disabilities. Volunteers run each station. After the students "experience" the disabilities, their teachers will follow-up with classroom discussions.
We even had special guests at a station. Mrs. Woodley and Ross from Lower Campus shared how service dogs help people with different disabilities.
Thank you to our counselor, Mrs. Skinner, for organizing this for our school and to our wonderful volunteers to helping with this event!
