Autism Acceptance at Holicong
Thank you to everyone who contributed to make Autism Acceptance month at Holicong a success as it allowed our entire community to learn more about ASD and for us to create opportunities for all of us to engage and collaborate together! A final few shout outs and work from this month!
- Autism Acceptance Infinity Mural - You will see in the pictures above the culmination of the work we did in our schoolwide I & E where students learned about ASD and shared their own meaning. Mr. Clint and a few helpers turned these into two murals in the cafeteria and a reminder that "what gets touched gets done" and seeing this visible art will be a reminder to us about the importance of accepting and including everyone at Holicong!
- Dodgeball Tournament - The final numbers are in and thank you to those that organized and participated - you helped raise over $400 that will benefit the work of our ASD program & Colonial Cafe!
- 2023 Faces of Holicong – Autism Acceptance I & E - Thank you to the new FRIENDS group and Mrs. Frymoyer's staff & students for helping with our Intervention and Enrichment activity. We have included a link to the work we did that day - both information about ASD and a way for ALL Holicong students & staff to participate. Please look for next week's update to see the progress of the Autism Infiniti Mural!
- FRIENDS Group - The FRIENDS group continues to grow and you can reach out to Ms. Zimmerman, Mrs. Fymoyer, and Ms. Camburn if you are interested in joining!
- Ms. Romig - Thank you to Ms. Roming for offering her Q & A sessions with students!
- Colonial Cafe - The special cookies this week were awesome and tasted great! Thanks to our students in the Colonial Cafe and especially Ms. Dana (we know it was you behind the scenes!) for these special treats and bringing more awareness to this work!
- Together Sports - Mr. Kelly had his first meeting with the group and look for more information about this group and activities in the last two months at Holicong!
