Autism Awareness day is generally celebrated on April 2. Participants are invited to "Go Blue on April 2". Since school is not in session on April 2nd, we would like to show our support by wearing blue on April 3rd, instead. We are calling it "Go Blue with Me on April 3!". This day of awareness offers families and staff the opportunity to discuss autism, differences and kindness. We hope you will join us.
