District 15 Special Olympics team, the Blue Jays, will offer the following sports this year: Track & Field, Soccer, Soccer Skills, and Dance. We may be able to offer additional sport, depending on student interest and coaching availability. Teams will have practices one day a week about eight weeks prior to the event. These practices will be run after school hours at one of our district schools and led by both the Head Coach and Assistant Coach.
