Shore Conference Unified Basketball competition was showcased at High School South on Feb. 9, as Middletown’s cooperative program featuring student-athletes from High School North and South hosted Neptune Township High School.

Launched in 2016 as a cooperative venture between the Shore Conference of High Schools, the Middletown Township Public School District, and the New Jersey Chapter of the Special Olympics, unified sports is dedicated to providing all students with authentic competitive experiences. The program allows students with special needs and typically developing students to collaborate in a safe, fun and competitive environment. The experience helps students develop crucial life skills and physical attributes that will serve them well beyond their time as a student in Middletown schools.

Unified Sports is available to all high school students. Learn more about Unified Sports by visiting the MTPS Course Offerings Website, or contact the MTPS Department of Athletics.
