We are excited to support Inclusive Activities in Westside and need your help to support our WE-SIDE UNIFIED team of polar plungers!
Individuals 7th grade and older are welcome to join and register to plunge with the team. Students should work with an adult to register through the Special Olympics Nebraska Website (https://www.sone.org/events/law-enforcement-torch-run/polar-plunge/polar-plunge.html).

Those wanting to stay a bit warmer (or who are under age) are encouraged to help support these brave individuals with a donation or to come cheer them on as "Fans in the Stands."
All funds will be used to support the Unified Activities programs in Westside Community schools such as our PK-21 WE-SIDE UNIFIED Program, WHS Unified Bowling, Unified Track, WHS Sparkles, etc. With your support, we hope to continue to expand these opportunities across our district and community.

What Are Unified Activities?
The Special Olympics Unified Schools Program is a fast-growing initiative that brings students with and without intellectual disabilities together.
As Unified Champion Schools, we partner with Special Olympics Nebraska to implement a three-component strategy focused on Inclusive Sports, Inclusive Youth Leadership, and Whole-School Engagement. These three components bring students with and without intellectual disabilities together to promote a positive school climate, develop physical fitness, prevent bullying, enhance student engagement, and promote student leadership skills.
