Unique Opportunity at HWS


Mary Kelly, PhD, our liason, developed the class Transition and Disability: Life after high school. This allows the college students and the ARC individuals to be integrated in a class together, for the first time.

The ARC individuals are broken into groups with the college students. They have to participate, present and do all the homework that is expected of the HWS students. There are field trips, discussions, service learning projects, and various collaborative activies inside and outside the classroom.

Each and every individual is so pleased with themselves when they leave class, it is such a great feeling to see the inclusion on the HWS campus.
