The DSBN will be holding its Special Olympics online this year.

Students can long into the virtual DSBN Special Olympics track from the comfort of their own homes, and participate in several challenges including the ball toss and the standing long jump.

Anyone in the DSBN community can participate.

The school board is encouraging everyone to take a picture or a video of them completing in one of the challenges and send it in.

The DSBN will share those pictures and videos on its social media pages.
