About the Project

This project will expand “Rally Around Fitness,” an inclusive district-wide event that brings together general education students, at-risk youth, and students with moderate to severe disabilities for a day of adapted physical activities and teamwork. Designed to promote equity, wellness, and student leadership, the event includes fitness stations, entertainment, and student-led logistics, supported by trained peer ambassadors. The initiative builds strong school-community relationships through collaboration with staff, families, and local organizations, and fosters student advocacy, social responsibility, and cross-campus unity.

Meet the Project Coordinator

Staci Reinalda

I teach art, ceramics, and ASB, with a focus on creating inclusive programs that celebrate diversity and build resilience in all student populations. In addition to my teaching role, I serve on the leadership team, resource committee, and the site Prop 28 planning team. I also contribute to district-wide initiatives through the VAPA and general curriculum councils. A commitment to student voice, equity, and creative expression drives my work.
