Special Olympics Alaska School Program Special Olympics Alaska School Programs provides opportunities for students of all abilities to learn, train and compete in sports and fitness activities alongside each other. Through school sanctioned clubs, unified sports, and classroom resources the Special Olympics School Program helps students learn about those who are different but who can nonetheless inspire greatness with their individual talents, gifts and personal contributions. This program promotes the benefits of fitness while providing opportunities to empower students and allow them to recognize their ability to make a difference in their world.
Special Olympics Alaska serves as a resource to the school in regards to sports clubs, fitness training and competition, educational support materials, and service learning opportunities. Special Olympics Alaska also serves as a connection/link between educators and students involved in the various programs. As we work towards aligning programs statewide, networking is crucial. Teachers and students with experience in Special Olympics in the classroom are a resource to those who are interested in learning how to implement it in their school.
The vision of the Special Olympics Alaska School Program is to be present in 53 school districts in the year 2006. All districts in Alaska will be introduced to opportunities for their schools through partnering with Special Olympics Alaska. Schools will be involved at the level they determine best for them.
