We want to celebrate World Down Syndrome Awareness Day on Friday, March 20.
Dig out your wildest, most mismatched socks and wear them proudly on March 21st! Why socks? Because the unique shape of a chromosome looks just like a sock — and on this day we celebrate the uniqueness that makes every person wonderfully one of a kind!
Go bold! Go bright! Go mismatched! The more outrageous the better! 🌈
📅 March 21st — wear your most mismatched socks and show the world that every person belongs, every person matters, and every person is worth celebrating! ❤️
What a week of reading celebration! Read Across America Week might be ending, but our partnership isn't. Thank you for being your child's first and most important teacher. Let's keep the pages turning all year long!
