Everybody Counts is a one-week program for students in
1st - 5th grade on Feb.10-14. This program promotes a
message of acceptance, respect and inclusion despite
physical or cognitive differences. Group discussions and
hands on activities help to create a meaningful learning
experience for the students. Each grade level focuses on
a specific topic ranging from hearing and visual impairments to learning impairments. Everybody Counts is
about getting people to realize that despite physical or
cognitive differences, each one of us is the same in our
desires to have friends, be accepted, and included. The
program instills a respect for others and will give students a chance to "walk in someone else's shoes".
If you could volunteer just a little bit of your time, whatever you can, you will find that Everybody Counts is a
unique and rewarding experience to be a part of. The
lessons are already planned out by grade level, and volunteers are needed to hand out supplies and assist with
activities. The classes are approximately one hour long,
so any time you can give is greatly appreciated!
