Homecoming for the Structured Learning Center (SLC) class and Unified Special Olympics crew was a busy and fun week!! ❤️🤍💙 (Did you all know that a barber invented the game of Uno in 1971? Our history lesson came to life with a Uno challenge!)
The Structured Learning Center (SLC) students have been BUSY! They've started all of their work experiences (Food Pantry & Leader Courier) , project skills (Goodwill), transition program (VENTURE @ Camp High Hopes) and in school jobs! There isn't enough room to type out ALL the things being learned from these; let's just say we are learning from each other, about ourselves and everything in between!
Lots of wind and lots of trial and error, but we made it!!!!
