“Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize West Salem High School for its commitment to inclusivity in sports. The Titans recently earned two national awards for their inclusive basketball program. In addition to being named a Unified Champion School by the Special Olympics, West was also added to ESPN's Honor Roll, a distinction awarded to only one school in every State per year. Their unique program includes combined gym classes where students with disabilities are paired with other students who can help guide them through activities, as well as special equipment and necessary modifications, like shorter hoops for athletes using wheelchairs. I am so proud of the students and faculty at West for their dedication to ensuring that every one of their peers can participate and make friends through sports, regardless of their abilities. Again, congratulations on these incredible and well-deserved achievements. Keep up the good work, and go Titans. ____________________”
