CIRCLE OF FRIENDS RETURNS
FIND OUT HOW YOU CAN HELP SUPPORT THIS PROGRAM
Circle of Friends is returning to North High School this year! For those new to North,
Circle of Friends is similar to the Best Buddies program that students may have
participated in previously (in middle school). Circle of Friends is a club for ALL
students at NHS where we will work together to promote inclusion, understanding,
empathy, and fun!
This year we will be meeting for several activities throughout the school year to
spend time with our new friends while doing fun things like: yard games, movie
nights, cooking activities, holiday parties, and hopefully attending some Husky
sporting events! Members will be able to pair up with a differently abled friend and
help each other participate in group activities. Our goal
is to create a space where all students can come to make Would you like to help support Circle of Friends?
