World Down Syndrome Day
Thank you Mac for choosing Delano Public Schools!
You light up every day. Today, staff and students celebrated World Down Syndrome Day (3.21.26). Students in preschool, at DES and at DIS wore mismatched socks to celebrate diversity and raise awareness because chromosomes look like socks, and people with Down syndrome have an extra 21st chromosome—a third, "mismatched" copy.
