Here is the feel-good story of the year! Ike, a high schooler with Downs Syndrome, was accepted as a member of the football team at Snohomish High School. Read about how the Lake Stevens team allowed him to make a touchdown, ruining their shutout against Snohomish. This story has gained national attention and will possibly be made into a movie. Kudos to the wise coach and the caring team and school members who have looked past Ike's disability and shown true love and compassion!
The homecoming king at BHS this year has special needs. The impact is wonderful. Here's a link to the story
