Roeper Diversity Day Celebration

The Roeper School will be hosting the conclusion of its annual Diversity Day celebration with several interactive student activities.

There will be presentations by several athletes living with disabilities and a wheelchair basketball game, in which many students will participate to experience the challenges these athletes live with on a daily basis, will be included in the days activities.

Following the game, students will be treated to a multicultural lunch prepared and donated by parents.
