Your student can purchase them in the mornings outside the Large Gym or during 7th and 8th grade lunch breaks in the cafeteria. The ticket covers light snacks, while drinks can be purchased for an additional $1 each. A designated "photo area" will be set up for taking fun pictures, and attendees can enjoy exciting activities such as a dance contest and karaoke as well.

Stock the Pantry

Community News

While many schools are moving toward integration and inclusion of students with disabilities in general education classrooms, simply being in the room is not enough. Students with disabilities need to participate in ways that lead to deep belonging and connection with peers in their communities. 

That’s why the PA Inclusion Collective and the PEAL Center are excited to provide families and educators in Pennsylvania this 3-part series.
