At Devon Middle School, we believe that every student deserves to feel welcomed, valued, and included in our school community. As part of our ongoing commitment to fostering meaningful relationships and a sense of belonging, we are excited to announce that we will be introducing a Best Buddies program at Devon this year!
Best Buddies is an international program that promotes friendship, inclusion, and meaningful connections between students of all abilities. Through this program, students have the opportunity to build genuine friendships, develop leadership skills, celebrate differences, and contribute to a more inclusive school community.
To kick off this exciting initiative, we will be hosting a Best Buddies Lunch & Learn on Friday, October 23, from 12:05–1:00 PM for students and staff interested in learning more about the program and becoming Peer Buddies.
Students attending will enjoy a slice of pizza and special guest speakers who will share their experiences with Best Buddies and the positive impact the program can have.
All interested students are welcome to attend! We encourage families to have a conversation with their child about this exciting opportunity.
We look forward to seeing the positive impact this program will have on our Wildcat community!
