This year, World Down Syndrome Day promotes “With Us Not For Us,” an approach that views people with disabilities as having the right to be treated fairly + have the same opportunities as everyone else — working WITH others to improve their lives. #WorldDownSyndromeDay

🎉 💪🏻 Time for another #MotivationMonday - Check out what one of our alums, Sydney Key, is up to these days...
Sydney, BCHS Class of 2021, is currently trying to further the learning she began here in BCPS by gaining as much experience as possible in many different medical fields. Just recently, she spent the day with PHI Air Med London 1, and then she went on to spend a week shadowing a trauma surgeon in the ER at UK hospital.
Sydney's mom, Missy, said, "I never know where she'll be or what she'll be doing! The EMT Program through BCPS was the best thing she could have done to help with her surgeon career (and the best path to medical school)."
We can't wait to see what else the future holds for Sydney! ✨

Angela Swan completed her masonry track test with the Local 4 Union last school year as a senior from Bullitt East. She was identified as an extremely talented young person through her completion of a written test, a skills performance, and an interview. She is currently working with a union contractor, Snell, and is in the Local 4's Union Apprenticeship Program.
This program sent her to a "Women in the Trades" conference in Las Vegas last year and now, Angela has been invited to be a part of virtual roundtable called “Labor Women Who Lead”.
Talk about living out our Graduate Profile skills and our district's mission of being ready to succeed in life - Angela is exhibiting this each and every day! Congratulations, Angela!!
