Best Buddies take part in festive fun

Best Buddies celebrate the holidays

Haine Elementary School’s Best Buddies chapter hosted their winter group activity with a burst of creativity and holiday cheer! Two teacher-nominated students from each third and fourth grade classrooms as well as students who primarily attend Haine Elementary’s Multiple Supports classrooms worked together to color giant cardboard gingerbread houses. Everyone had a great time creating these festive decorations that will adorn the Multiple Supports classroom.

Best Buddies is an international organization consisting of volunteers that create opportunities for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. At the elementary level, it’s about promoting inclusion and friendship among students with and without intellectual and developmental disabilities through group activities.
