On Nov. 13, the Viscardi Ambassadors from the Henry Viscardi School visited fifth graders at Bowling Green Elementary School in East Meadow.
The Viscardi Ambassadors are comprised of boys and girls of different ages, grade levels and hometowns. Their visits are aimed to break down the barriers that exist between the able-bodied world and those with physical challenges. The ambassadors created presentations about their lives, including their interests, disabilities, family lives and experiences at Viscardi.
At the end of their presentations, students took the pledge to become “Ability Ambassadors,” promising to do their best to look for and see abilities in others. They also pledged to do their best in inviting and including everyone to join in activities.
