Learning About Cerebral Palsy with Taylor Cole and Her Family Today, our Langford Area Elementary students had the privilege of spending time with Taylor Cole and her family to learn more about cerebral palsy. Through their visit, students gained a deeper understanding of what CP is, how it affects individuals in different ways, and the importance of all-inclusiveness and kindness. To show our support and love for Taylor and all of our friends with cerebral palsy, staff and students wore green today! Thank you to Taylor and her family for sharing their experiences, answering questions, and helping us all learn and grow. It was a meaningful day filled with education, awareness, and inspiration! 💚 #CerebralPalsyAwareness #InclusionMatters #LangfordAreaElementary
