December 3rd

This day is dedicated to promoting understanding of the rights and well-being of people with disabilities, both visible and invisible. In schools, it’s an important opportunity to encourage empathy, inclusion, and accessibility.

Children learn that disabilities are part of the rich diversity of the human experience. From mobility challenges to chronic illness to invisible conditions like dyslexia or sensory processing disorder, this day helps all students understand that every child deserves to feel seen, safe, and supported.

Celebrating this day fosters a classroom culture where students learn to recognize and remove barriers, both physical and social, and where all kids feel valued for who they are.
