In an effort to help students better understand the daily challenges of students with Autism Spectrum Disorders who struggle with sensory processing sensitivities, HHS's Interact Club created a hands-on sensory exhibit and led students through stations meant to simulate what it might feel like to deal with visual, auditory, olfactory, tactile, vestibular, and proprioceptive sensitivities during a typical school day.
