Shepard campaigns for Autism Acceptance Week

Astros take the lead to create an environment where all feel embraced.

To enhance the continual campaign to make all students feel welcome and embraced, Shepard High School organized dress theme days for Autism Acceptance Week starting on Monday.

The week seeks to help people understand autism. Like Respect Week and other movements at Shepard, Autism Acceptance Week also promotes treating others with dignity and respect.
