UNIFIED PE AT SKYRIDGE HIGH SCHOOL
In partnership with our Physical Education Department and Adapted Physical Education Teachers, Skyridge High School provides students of all abilities with the opportunity to learn and compete alongside one another through Unified Athletics. The class curriculum focuses on fitness, recreational, and individual and team sport skills, with the aim of increasing health, fitness, community access, and inclusion for all involved. Students can join Skyridge Unified teams that include both unified athletes and unified partners (peers), thus creating an environment where all students can learn and grow together. Many long-lasting friendships and memories have been formed and made as a result of these opportunities. Unified sports allows us to encourage a welcome culture and environment where everyone is accepted for who they are.
