Day 1
ALL STUDENTS AND STAFF-
**Friday March 21 is World Down's Syndrome Awareness day. Wear mismatched socks to promote inclusiveness in our school
- Why is it that day? Well, March 21st is the 21st day of the 3rd month. The most common cause of Down syndrome is Trisomy 21, when a cell division results in 3 on the 21st chromosome instead of the usual pair.
- Why Crazy socks? When looking at a karyotype (a picture of our chromosomes, stained for viewing under a microscope), the chromosomes look like paired socks. The staining makes them look striped. Some folks even wear an extra sock to represent the extra chromosome.
- Why is it important? Everyone deserves to be accepted and included. We should embrace our differences and appreciate others for theirs. Everyone, including people with Down syndrome, have a lot to offer if given a chance.
**Lost and Found : There is a small table outside the office with lost and found items, anything not claimed by this Friday March 21 will be donated !
