Mission of Special Olympics Alaska School Program: To provide opportunities to Alaska youth through a partnership with Alaskan schools that supports the Special Olympics Alaska mission; to provide opportunities for youth with and without intellectual disabilities to participate in activities together; and to provide opportunities for the expertise and experience of Alaska Schools and Special Olympics Alaska to benefit from each other in working towards building lifelong skills through inclusive opportunities.

Vision of the Special Olympics Alaska School Program: The goal and vision of the School Program is to give 53 school districts access to the program. All districts in Alaska will be introduced to opportunities for their schools through collaborating with Special Olympics Alaska. Through several programs available to students and teachers within the general education and special education setting, the program is designed to allow districts to be involved at the level they determine best for them.
