Life School Celebrates Student-Led Initiative to Provide Letter Jackets to Special Olympics Athletes
A heartwarming act of kindness took center stage at Life High School Waxahachie (LHSW) as one student’s dedication to ensuring equality for all athletes resulted in a special moment for the school’s life skills class. During a pep rally held in their honor, three varsity-level Special Olympics athletes were presented with their very own letterman jackets, thanks to the tireless efforts of senior Nadia Allen-Penn.
March is National Athletic Training Month (NATM), a time to recognize and raise awareness about the critical work athletic trainers do every day. At Life School, we are proud to have exceptional athletic trainers who are dedicated to keeping our student-athletes safe, healthy, and ready to compete. Their commitment to injury prevention, care, and recovery makes a lasting impact on our athletes and school communities!
