Written By: Robert Cox

NEW ROCHELLE, NY — The Special Education PTA is Open for “We Are One” Nominations.

The We Are One Award honors school district teachers, administrators, and staff who go out of their way to support and nurture our children. The Bridges Community Award honors an individual or organization within the community who makes a difference in the life of a New Rochelle child with special needs. Starting this year we will also honor a student with the Bridges Student Award. Inclusion often starts with peers, and we are exited to celebrate a student who includes his or her peers with disabilities in friendship and shared activities. This student must attend a public school in the City School District of New Rochelle.

The winners will be honored at the annual “We Are One Dinner” scheduled for April 23, 2015 at The Fountainhead on Quaker Ridge Road in New Rochelle.
