๐ E2CCB Special Olympics: Celebrating Ability, Determination, and Inclusion! ๐๐
Our E2CCB students recently had the opportunity to shine at Special Olympics events held at SUNY Fredonia and Strider Field in Jamestown, joining hundreds of athletes from across the region in a day filled with competition, teamwork, and unforgettable memories. These annual events bring together student-athletes, staff, volunteers, and community members to celebrate achievement, sportsmanship, and the power of inclusion.
From running races and field events to cheering on teammates and earning medals, our students demonstrated courage, determination, and incredible school spirit every step of the way. Most importantly, they showed that success comes in many forms and that every athlete deserves the chance to compete, belong, and be celebrated.
A special thank you to our staff, volunteers, families, and community partners who helped make these experiences possible. We are so proud of our athletes for representing E2CCB with enthusiasm, perseverance, and pride! ๐๐

The LoGuidice Educational Center recently celebrated prom with a Fairy Garden theme, giving students a fun, welcoming and memorable event together.
One of the highlights came before the music and dancing even started, thanks to an awesome collaboration with our Cosmetology students! Junior cosmetology students helped their peers get prom-ready with hair, makeup and manicures, making sure everyone felt confident, celebrated and ready to shine.
The prom was held outside at the pavilion and featured great weather, food, music, dancing and plenty of smiles.
A big thank you to the LoGuidice staff, Cosmetology students and staff, and everyone who helped plan, prepare and make this special event possible for our students!
