What some students have said about the Ability Awareness Program:
“Ability Awareness Week has helped me to understand better that even though kids have differences, they still have many characteristics that are the same, like wanting to do your best, trying hard, making friends, being accepted and loved, and having fun.”
“During Ability Awareness Week, I learned that though some people may have obvious disabilities, no one is without some disabilities…I also learned two people can be different and the same at the same time.”
“Ability Awareness Week last week was really fun…Even though we are all different we are also the same because we are all human…I pledge to be nice to everyone and treat everyone the same way, even if they are different.”
