Potential Development, a school for children with autism, recently held a ribbon-cutting ceremony to dedicate the newly built outdoor fitness center at Potential Development High School, 2405 Market St., Youngstown.
The fitness and recreational area, a $175,000 project, includes a cardio stepper, chest and back press, squat press, elliptical, angled balance beams, and other fitness equipment specifically designed for encouraging outdoor activity in older children.
In addition to the fitness center ribbon cutting, buddy benches were dedicated in memory of three former Potential Development students, Tucker Kufleitner, Nathan McStowe and Cody Straley.
