The First ever Inclusion Fair was nothing short of amazing! Yall all showed up in big ways to celebrate Inclusion and support our special education programs! I did not take near enough photos these are just the ones that were sent to me.

I want to thank our amazing committee for working so hard for the past 2 months to create such a special event. I would like to thank the community for the overwhelming support by showing up, volunteering, sponsoring, donating, and sharing this event. The volunteers did so much and all of you were absolutely incredible. Events like this don’t plan themselves nor can they run and be successful without the support of our amazing community and volunteers! The support we received from our amazing parents, church members, BETA, Girl Scouts, teachers, administrators, Liberty Co-Op, all of the committee members families, and community members was overwhelming and did not go unnoticed or unappreciated! Thank you to the many other surrounding school districts that also came out to support the event. Thank you is not a strong enough word for the amount of gratitude I feel. This event felt and showed what an outstanding community we live in! The Inclusion Fair was nothing short of an amazing community run event. The energy at this event was filled with love, fun, family, community, belonging, and Inclusion. From the absolute bottom of my heart, thank you.

I know everyone is anxiously awaiting the outcome of what we raised for TISD SPED Departments but I’m going to leave yall hanging on just a little longer. We have a few more vendors we’re waiting on to send their donations and the committee has a closeout meeting scheduled for Monday. Once we officially close out I can post the total. Just know it is big and it is all thanks to all of you who supported us. Thanks to our amazing community, our special education teachers and students will be all set up with new resources, tools, and sensory items! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
