Special education residencies in greenville county high schools

CDC receives annual funding from the Barbara Stone Foundation to work alongside special education high schoolers in the Greenville County Public Schools. 4 Schools are chosen both in the Fall and Spring semesters to participate in 5 weeks of lessons that finishes with a large performance of all involved schools. It's a special opportunity for our students and having the chance to perform on stage is an exciting experience for everyone involved. Peer tutors and teachers play a large role in the project and also join us onstage to assist our SpEd performers. Watch the video below to learn more about it.

All individuals with special needs are also welcome to join our summer camps for a week of movement fun, crafts, and snacks certified by Livewell Greenville. For past 2017 summer camps please click HERE; more information concerning Summer 2018 will be out in the new year.
