Dear East Lake Families,

Get ready to Rock Your Socks! While the official World Down Syndrome Day is March 21st, we are inviting all students, staff, and family members to kick off the celebration early by wearing their wildest socks to school on Friday, March 20th.

We encourage everyone to celebrate the beauty of diversity by wearing your loudest, craziest, and most colorful mismatched socks. This global movement is a fun and simple way to spark conversations, raise awareness, and show your support for the Down Syndrome community. Whether you're in the classroom, the office, or at home, let’s make a bold statement together—because it’s our differences that make the world a more vibrant place!

Sincerely yours,
Thomas A. McKillop, III
