Our class was so fortunate to have Lisa Harris sit in on our group discussions and give us her individual input. She came in on November 26th, and we told her our names and the projects we have each taken on so far. She was very impressed to see all of the progress we have made in our classroom, school, and community.
Lisa had a very profound message; the skills and lessons we have learned in treating our Special Olympians is something we should apply to our everyday lives and treat everyone in this way.
Lisa emphasized the fact that it takes no effort whatsoever to be kind to someone. The bottom line is that you never know what one simple act of kindness can do to an individual's life.
This class has already proven to be more than just a class. So far, we have all learned and grown so much as individuals, and as Lisa was so kind to point out, we have learned lessons that will last us a lifetime.
