The Bionic Project Visits Haggerty!
Posted on 01/27/2025
The Bionic Project visited Haggerty elementary last month. Students were introduced to two elite soccer players, both of whom only had one leg.

Through two assemblies, one for grades preschool - grade 2 and one for grades 3-5, they presented a greater understanding of disabilities by learning the athletes personal stories. Students were explored how our world is set up for people without disabilities, as well as a bit about how to counteract this through Universal Design - which aims to offer solutions that work for all people. Grades 2 - 5 homerooms even had a second chance to come back individually and experience using only one leg on crutches to play soccer. This experience sparked meaningful reflection and conversation around allyship to people with disabilities.
