Wellness Grant to Support Special Equipment for Inclusive PE
"Thanks to the Wellness grant, many students were able to benefit from the different kinds of equipment that was purchased. The volleylites were used with many of the students and typical peers. Many of these kids shy away from balls being tossed towards them. When a volleylite ball was tossed for them to pass it back students were not afraid and would pass the ball. Having equipment that is lighter like the footballs, volleyballs, and rackets benefited everyone so they could play together and show success in a general PE class and amongst their peers".
