During week 5, the DSS office will be starting an initiative called "Meet Me For Dinner". Every week at 5:30 on various days, Peer Mentors and Educators will be in the Oak Room to have dinner with people. This initiative will help you if you always eat alone and you would like to have company, or you have a question that a student can help you with, or you just want to sit with a small group and get to know more people. You will find them in the Oak Room! Stay tuned for times and dates - We'll be updating them on our Facebook, email, and newsletter. We can't wait to meet you for dinner!

We are so excited to announce that we're reviving and reforming our clubs, KADSA, and The Art room!
KADSA was created with a vision to help students with any kind of disability find a community that makes them feel more welcomed and comfortable in an academic environment.
The Art Room, as mentioned in the flyer below, focuses more on mentoring High school students with learning disabilities and helping them explore their own strengths.
We're looking for leaders and mentors to help us revive these clubs and make Knox a more inclusive space for all. If this sounds like something you would like to be a part of, please reach out to us through email:
