On Monday, October 13th, seven ADM High School students competed in the Special Olympics West Central Valley Bowling Competition. The athletes paired with Unified Partners from Mrs. Knipper’s Elementary Education class for the day. 

The high school bowlers were: Jasmine Carmichael, Anna Wessels, Jack Gordon, Parker McGinnis, Elana Belgarde, Isaiah Pierce, and Mallory Redmon. Families and staff celebrated and cheered on the athletes at Bowlerama in Des Moines. Anna, Jasmine, Elana, and Parker each placed first in their division and will represent ADM High School in the state competition at the end of November.
