   Involve students in learning about those who are different but who can nonetheless inspire the world with the lesson that we all have gifts to contribute no matter what our limitations. Special Olympics Get Into It™ (SO Get Into It) is a free curriculum that celebrates gifts - the diverse gifts of every student whatever his or her ability. Through the world of Special Olympics, every student can come to recognize that he or she has the power to make a difference.
Students Learning

Through SO Get Into It, students will learn about the Special Olympics experience and all its positive messages. They will come to understand the athletes' ability to contribute to society through leadership roles both on and off the playing field. They will come to appreciate the critical role of service-learning. Most important, they will be invited to make a difference themselves.

SO Get Into It is about the world of winners called Special Olympics, but it is much more: it is a portal through which young people can discover the pathway to building a more welcoming society for all.
