Ms. Clare Scott, Resource Teacher, Hugh Boyd Secondary

Being the sponsor of the Unity Club at Hugh Boyd has been an incredibly rewarding experience.  Being able to step back and see members take charge, and show not only their incredible leadership skills, but their compassion for our students who face daily challenges – has been an overwhelmingly heart warming experience to witness from the sidelines.  The youth I see today, in this group, are an incredible collection of empathic students who will go out of their way to not only volunteer their time, but share their positive energy with these students who do not normally get to experience such activities, like a high school dance, with their typical peers in such a fun, real life experience!  We all came away from this event feeling positive, happy and proud of another successful gathering of teens all feeling included and part of something very special.
