WHY: |
Students with intellectual disabilities are often isolated from many other high school clubs and social activities. The Best Buddies organization is the only club within the school that allows students with and without intellectual disabilities to form one-to-one friendships, inclusion, awareness, compassion and understanding.
Best Buddies will host the semi-formal dance and will also have a photographer and a DJ. They also are expecting special guests: Miss USA, Miss Teen USA and Verne Troyer better known as "Mini Me" from the Austin Powers movies.
