On Wednesday, May 4^th our Newark Board of Education student athletes participated in the Special Olympics Track & Field Event at Brookdale Park in Bloomfield, NJ.  We had students compete from Avon, First Avenue, Ivy Hill, John F. Kennedy, NJ Regional Day, Spencer, and South Street.

Track and field, also known as athletics, encourages athletes of all abilities and ages to compete at their optimum level. Through training programs, participants can develop total fitness to compete in any sport.
