A special thanks to our student coaches: Jake Cook, Caleb Simmons, and Diamond Bullard.
With tremendous unwritten values offered through this program, the athletic department is grateful for the support had from Mr. Chris Bayer, our Executive Director of Exceptional Learners and Mr. Rob Glowacki, Supervisor of Exceptional Learners, who helped to support the program approval process. We'd also like to recognize our two coaches, Ms. Sandy Baines and Ms. Michele Bender who have done a great job in getting the program off the ground and motivating our students to participate.
