Snow’s innovative teaching idea, “Let’s Roll: Adaptive Cycles,” focuses on providing students with special needs the opportunity to enjoy the outdoors, exercise, and socialize with peers in order to achieve optimal health. The Voya grant will allow for the purchase of top-of-the-line bikes, as well as bike storage systems, and to provide a vehicle for special needs students to develop their balance and coordination skills. Snow believes that the opportunity to participate in daily and weekly physical activity will motivate and encourage special needs students and steer them on the path towards success.
