October is Disability History & Awareness Month, a time to honor the contributions, achievements, and experiences of individuals with disabilities. At Pullman Public Schools, we are committed to fostering a learning environment where every student feels seen, valued, and supported. This month serves as an opportunity to educate our community, promote acceptance, and advocate for inclusion.
Our district has curated a collection of resources to help students, staff, and families learn more about the history of the disability rights movement, accessibility in education, and strategies for creating a more inclusive environment. These materials are designed to raise awareness and deepen understanding of how we can all contribute to a more accessible and equitable society.
We encourage everyone to check out the great resources we have collected by visiting https://www.pullmanschools.org/district/educational_equity/cultural-awareness/disability-history-awareness. Let's work together to celebrate diversity and create spaces of belonging for all.
