- During open computer labs, complete daily evaluations, newletter articles, and other assignments.
- We have created a wide variety of activities that, as a whole, provide academic, career and social preparation for post-high school experiences. DO-IT expects that you will not enjoy all of them equally. However, many people have contributed their time and talents to this program. Demonstrate your appreciation through your active participation and enthusiasm.
- If you have special circumstances (for example, a need for extra rest time) that require that you skip an activity on the schedule, seek approval from a DO-IT staff member.
- If you have suggestions for additional activities to add to the schedule, share your ideas with Sheryl Burgstahler, Kristin Otis, Kathy Cook, or James O'Connor.
- If you require special disability-related accommodations in order to participate in an activity, share your needs with the presenter or a DO-IT staff member.
