[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”179208″ img_size=”full”][vc_column_text]West Palm Beach, FL, March 27, 2024<\/strong> \u2014 At Olympic Heights High School<\/strong>, Best Buddies International<\/strong>, a nonprofit dedicated to creating opportunities for friendship, employment, leadership development and inclusive living for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD), is making a big difference.<\/p>\n

The school has a Best Buddies Friendship chapter<\/strong>, a program that pairs individuals with and without IDD into a one-to-one friendship to provide social opportunities to participants with IDD and create an environment ripe for inclusion.<\/p>\n

The Olympic Heights\u2019 chapter has done just that. The chapter has been running for over a decade and is the largest it has ever been, with over 125 active members.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople really want to be part of Best Buddies here,\u201d Bayla Hirsh<\/strong>, a Best Buddies in Florida Ambassador and the chapter\u2019s president, said. \u201cThey\u2019re not just coming here for a line on their resume; they\u2019re actively participating with their buddies. I love seeing all the different friendships we\u2019ve made and the connections we\u2019ve created.\u201d<\/p>\n

The chapter hosts monthly events to bring students with and without IDD together in friendship, and no event exemplifies this culture quite like the Buddy Bash, an annual school-wide fundraising event ran by the chapter in tandem with the school\u2019s student government.<\/p>\n

The Buddy Bash showcases the best of what Friendship chapters have to offer at the high school level. Participants enjoy a two-hour event with food, games, music, and most importantly, friendship. The chapter fundraises for the event by selling hats, T-shirts and other Best Buddies gear. Students, parents, teachers, administrators and community members all attend to support this celebration of inclusion.<\/p>\n

\u201cI love the Buddy Bash,\u201d Drew Matus, a chapter participant with an IDD, said. \u201cI love hanging out with my friends.\u201d<\/p>\n

In years past, the Buddy Bash was held on the school\u2019s football field and hosted hundreds of students, becoming a beacon for inclusion at the school and raising thousands of dollars for Best Buddies. This year\u2019s event, the seventh iteration, took a more modest approach, hosting around 100 participants in the school\u2019s gym.<\/p>\n

A small showcase of inclusion can still create big waves.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think the Buddy Bash, no matter how big or how small, really opens people\u2019s eyes to what inclusion means at Olympic Heights,\u201d Lilly Gottfried<\/strong>, the chapter\u2019s vice president, said. \u201cIt is great to see how so many students, even those who aren\u2019t part of our chapter, interact with our members.\u201d<\/p>\n

While the Buddy Bash is the zenith of inclusion at Olympic Heights, it is the little things that show the inclusivity Best Buddies has helped create.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou walk through the hallways and people are high fiving each other, and you walk into the cafeteria and see students eating with their buddies,\u201d Kristen Bombonato<\/strong>, a special education teacher and the chapter\u2019s advisor, said. \u201cI feel like Best Buddies has removed the stigmas about our students with disabilities and helped normalize inclusive friendships. It\u2019s great to see, and every year the club grows.\u201d<\/p>\n

The chapter\u2019s impact has also made waves around the community. Bombonato said that many of her new students had already heard of the school\u2019s program thanks to referrals from teachers at the local middle school, Eagles Landing.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy students with disabilities, from their first day at school, ask me about Best Buddies,\u201d she said. \u201cIt sometimes feels like I am answering more questions about Best Buddies than I am about homework.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hirsch and Bombonato credited the recent growth of the chapter to the support they received from the school\u2019s administration.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs a former special education teacher, Best Buddies has a big place in my heart,\u201d Kelly Burke<\/strong>, the school\u2019s principal, said. \u201cThe student body has really embraced it and it is one of our most popular clubs. Best Buddies has helped us create a strong culture of inclusion.\u201d<\/p>\n

This is a culture that Best Buddies wants to replicate at every high school. Members from the Olympic Heights chapter want that too.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think every school should have Best Buddies,\u201d Gottfried said. \u201cIt\u2019s something that we all look forward too.\u201d<\/p>\n
