Students were matched one-to-one with their buddy and have been spending time together over the last couple of weeks! During their visits buddies may play games, do art, work on school assignments, and last week enjoyed participating in a Spooky Science Experiment! 

This past Saturday, a few students and Faculty Advisor, Ms. Ellie Stevens, attended the Best Buddies Champion of the Year Gala at the Statler Hotel! Ellie, Stevie, and Stella spoke and represented Lakewood Elementary on stage in front of hundreds of Best Buddies supporters. It was so encouraging and exciting to see that our chapter is just a small part of a larger global movement for inclusion!
