About: Connections Club connects students without disabilities to students who have disabilities. Oftentimes, our peers and friends who have disabilities need support when attending sporting events, dances, and other school activities and need guidance from a peer on how to attend safely and display appropriate social skills. Connections Club is an awesome way to get involved and be a part of your school. It is very similar to unified sports, but you do not have to get all sweaty! This is also a great way to learn some skills that will benefit you as you get older and progress towards working in the community, and or going to college.
