Unified Oakers Taking the 2022 Plunge By Grace Petrarca
The Unified Oakers move into their busiest time of the year as we prepare for the annual polar plunge. The polar plunge is hosted by Special Olympics of Rhode Island as their main fundraiser of the year to support Special Olympics and Unified programs throughout the state of Rhode Island. Students throughout the state of Rhode Island raise money as a school team, competing with other schools, all culminating in a plunge into the freezing ocean during the month of March together as one unified group. This year's plunge is Saturday, March 19th at 11 am at Roger Wheeler Beach.

Are You Ready to Take the Plunge for a Unified Cause? BY GRACE PETRARCA
Over the past year, Unified Oakers has been working hard to promote total inclusion in the school and unity within the student body. Currently, we are raising money to support Special Olympics at the upcoming Unified Plunge in March. The plunge is students from Rhode Island's schools and the community getting together to plunge into the ocean to fundraise for Special Olympics. This year half of the money that we raise comes back to the Unified Movement at our school. Our goal is to raise $20,000.
