This is not an easy task for any school, let alone a school for special students. Some have Autism, some developmentally delayed, some require the help of respirators, while others use wheelchairs. This was by far the BEST school program I've ever had the pleasure of attending. It wasn't because the presentations were Broadway or television quality. It was because of all the hard work and devotion the staff put into helping make every student a star in his or her own way.
The smiles on the faces of the students, staff, and families of these remarkable children was a sight to behold. They may never walk without assistance, talk, or run and play like others, but the pride that swelled from those students made you forget for a moment how difficult their lives are.
Thank you Theresa!
I'm so very proud of you, my special angel...
