Wenonah Elementary Celebrates Neurodiversity With 2nd Annual Autism Acceptance Walk

Wenonah Elementary School came together in a joyful celebration of inclusion and community during its 2nd Annual Wenonah Walk, the culminating event of Autism Acceptance Month. This schoolwide event gave students in grades K–5 the chance to rotate through sensory-based stations designed to honor and explore the importance of sensory integration.

Throughout the month, students participated in activities that promoted awareness and understanding of neurodiversity. They created vibrant sensory bulletin boards, recorded read-alouds and presented thoughtful research projects on topics related to autism and neurodiversity.

The walk itself was filled with excitement and energy. With chalk art, dancing, balloons and parachute games, the day was both fun and meaningful. Parent volunteers also joined in to support the stations and help make the event a success.

This special day served as a powerful reminder of the importance of inclusion – and of the strength and unity within the Wenonah community.
