“I see Jayden being very successful in the future because of his time spent in PE, in Special Olympics, and all that successful time with same age peers in those settings.” Dena’ina Elementary School (AK) exemplifies why Developmental Sports is the best way to implement Unified Sports for upper elementary students. Students with and without intellectual disabilities participate in inclusive activities at a young age, promoting social inclusion, and supporting the transition to traditional Special Olympics participation. See why students like Jayden are thriving because of these programs.
