Hilo High School is an OUTSTANDING Project Unify School! They include the Special Olympics athletes into their school activities and work in partnership with the many clubs, athletic teams and classes to promote inclusion in the school. It is the BEST Project Unify school in our eyes!!! Here is a basketball signed by all of the Hilo High School Girls Varsity and Junior Varsity players and coaches that was presented to East Hawaii Area Director, Carey Uchida, at their game against Kamehameha tonight. What an honor for our Special Olympians!
Hilo High School Girls Basketball team are a shining example of what Project Unify is all about-inclusion! Way to go Vikings!!
