Rogers Elementary Special Olympics

Donation protected


Greg Rogers Elementary is partnering with the Special Olympics for the 2nd year in a row to increase awareness in the importance of physical fitness and living a healthy lifestyle among all students. Through sports, the Special Olympics unites communities and helps their athletes find new strengths, confidence, and fulfillment on and off the field. By partnering with the Special Olympics, Greg Rogers is introducing such sports and activities that foster physical, cognitive, and social development to all students both with and without disabilities. In addition, the activities introduced to all students will promote unity and collaboration between the general education and special education students.

     This physical education program will lead to a school wide Special Olympic Unified Grand Extravaganza that will be held on Tuesday, May 30th 2017 from 8:45am-1:30pm at Greg Rogers Elementary. Two other schools will be joining us as students of all grades, skill levels, and abilities work together to experience new strengths and show off their skills!

      During this event we would also like to show students how easy and important it is to make healthy food choices. In order to make this possible we are asking for your help! A large portion of the money raised here will be used to purchase water, granola bars, fresh fruit, and other healthy food items to feed and hydrate all attendants and athletes at the event on May 30th. We are expecting a total of about 800 people on the day of the event. The remaining money raised will be used for set up costs and to purchase awards for our young, amazing athletes! 

     If you would like to set up a booth at the event that supports healthy food options or would like to volunteer to help run some of the events, as we will need lots of volunteers, please email one of the below team members:
