My son has Down syndrome and this happened last week at his school. I cannot stop thinking about it.
Y’all, the world is going to be ok.
Marcus didn’t want to come in from recess today; it’s one of his Achilles heels at school. But today some 5th grade boys banded together and convinced Marcus that he was a King and needed to be carried inside on a throne.
If you see this and you know these kids and/or their parents, please tell them that this means the world to me. And that their kindness and leadership will take them far.
I’m so touched by this; there are beautiful things happening all the time. We just need to keep our eyes open.
Folwell Elementary School, thank you for creating this amazing and inclusive space.
