Tate High School Hosts District Special Olympics (With Photo Gallery)
March 21, 2018
The 21st Annual Escambia County School District’s Special Olympics Spring Games were held Tuesday at Tate High School with over 500 student athletes from 24 schools. Over 500 Tate student volunteers assisted as “buddies” and event workers.
The event began with Special Olympic athletes running with the Special Olympics Torch around the track. There was also an Olympic Village with plenty of fun and games, and even a petting zoo, for the athletes to enjoy after they completed their track and field events.
Athletes received the traditional gold, silver and bronze medals for top finishes.
