Truly special

I was able to witness one of the most remarkable events I have seen in awhile on Friday, April 11, when I attended Lebanon High School’s Daylight Prom for students with multiple disabilities. As Lebanon Principal Sam Ison said, it really does put life in perspective to see the smiles on the students’ faces as they danced, sang and genuinely enjoyed each other’s company. When I was in high school, I had the privilege of working with some handicapped students through a local baseball league that allowed the kids to play baseball by adapting it to their needs. Because of that experience - and now after being at their prom - students with special needs will always hold a special place in my heart. I have to applaud the staff at Lebanon High School for putting on this event and inviting students from Little Miami and Springboro. Look for photos on our website.

The students definitly had the time of their lives! We couldn’t have pulled it off without the support of our fellow staff and community members. Ryan, you did a great job of covering this story. The students are now celebrities!
