A huge thank you to Quick Response for their holiday cheer & generosity with our Best Buddies kids! This is the 3rd year in a row that we bring our Albany High Best Buddies to their drive thru holiday lights. This year they invited us inside for hot cocoa & donuts, & pictures with the man himself - Santa!!!🎅❤️ The kids absolutely loved it, we look forward to continuing our partnership with Quick Response and continuing our yearly tradition. The adults had just as much fun as the kids! Before me we left to drive up to Quick Response, we had some mac and cheese at school. Pajamas were optional, some kids and adults were dressed for the occasion 😊
You need to go to Quick Response to drive through the lights, and it’s FREE! Thank you again, Quick Response!

Last week we had our Best Buddies Friendsgiving, and what a great time we had! Our Buddies had a full Thanksgiving meal with turkey, potatoes, stuffing, corn, green beans, cranberry sauce and of course pie! They also wrote and drew what they are thankful for 💙 One thing is for sure, we are so thankful for our Buddies and the joy they give us all year ☺️ we are also thankful for our SPED department who always supports us with anything we ask for, our TA’s who are always there to help us, and all of our other supporters, especially those who helped us out by purchasing something off of our Amazon wishlist for our upcoming Holiday Party! Thank you all ❤️
