Conversation #1

My first conversation was with Courtney Reyburn. While we were discussing the matter I jotted down some notes that included, "about special Olympics. She wants to make it so that the "normal" society can look at those with special needs as normal people. So in order for this to happen we need to have more inclusion so she's going to plan some events and get as many as we can to attend alongside those with special needs so one thing she wants to do is a dance where each student with special needs gets asked by one of us and then we have a big dance and another thing is a big soccer game but have everything normal like a regular soccer game just special needs kids are mixed in the some of the regular soccer players and then finally at the end of the year during the summer she wants to get a group of kids but like a big group to go and support them at the world games and raise money to stay for a few nights in a hotel!" After discussing with Courtney I began to get very emotional and excited for her masterpiece. It is such a beautiful idea because I love spending time with special needs kids. They are no different than any of us, they ARE normal! I am going to join in on every single activity and event Courtney plans to not only better myself and help promote her effort to make equality  among us kids, but also to help her become as successful as she can because she deserves it! I want to help her find students who will contribute to her project and make it amazing. I am so proud of her and love her masterpiece!!! <3
