🎉🧦 Rock Your Socks for World Down Syndrome Day! 🧦🎉
Friday, E2CCB proudly joined the global celebration of World Down Syndrome Day by rocking our brightest, boldest, and most mismatched socks! Why socks? Because chromosomes are shaped like socks — and on 3/21, we celebrate the extra 21st chromosome that makes people with Down syndrome wonderfully unique. 💙💛
Our students, staff, and community came together to raise awareness, promote inclusion, and show that different is beautiful. 💫
To everyone who rocked their socks with us — thank you for spreading love, acceptance, and positivity. Let’s continue to build a world where everyone belongs! 💙💛
