We are so excited to announce that Mt Bethel will be celebrating Exceptional Children’s Week, Jan 21st - 24th.  This will be a time that we all come together to acknowledge and celebrate our exceptional and differently abled students. As a school of character, we want to encourage curiosity, questions, acceptance, and inclusion by sharing how all children and people have something to contribute with unique perspectives and talents that help make the world a richer and more interesting place.

During this week, each grade level will have one disability to learn about and what makes those individuals so exceptional in what they can do. They will even get to experience what it is like to live with a specific disability.

• K- Visually Impaired
• 1st- Orthopedically impaired
• 2nd- Deaf and hard of hearing
• 3rd- Dyslexia/Dysgraphia/LD
• 4th- Autism
• 5th - Down syndrome

The more we can share about differently abled people the more we can empower all generations to embrace everyone and encourage acceptance! We hope you take this opportunity to discuss with your child what they learned during this week.

Inclusion is within everyone’s ability!
