NECSD School Community Celebrates World Down Syndrome Day!
March 21st was World Down Syndrome Day! This year's theme was: With Us Not For Us. We asked our school community to celebrate this special day with us and people all around the world by wearing mismatched socks! March 21st (3/21) was selected as a symbolic day because people with Down Syndrome have 3 copies of their 21st chromosome.
A special thanks to the following people for sharing their photos!:
Sisters Rachel Ferrante on left 5th grade and Ashley Ferrante on right 9th grade NFA Main. Rocking their socks for World Down Syndrome Day.
