We are excited to announce that "The Peer Buddy Club" is extending 
opportunities to join to the entire Hammarskjold community.  This pilot 
began last year and the kids had a wonderful time interacting and forming 
friendships. The club is underway now that we have settled into our new 
surroundings. The purpose of this club is to help special needs and general 
education students develop friendships through different structured social 
activities. This club is a combined effort between SEPTA and Hammarskjold. 
The two entities have workedsuccessfully on many inclusion efforts, 
volunteerism, clubs, and through the excellence committee. We hope you will 
take advantage of this opportunity to help us integrate our children 
successfully. It is only with the combined help of families. teachers and 
administration that we can help these kinds of programs to succeed. On 
behalf of SEPTA, we would like to take this opportunity to thank Mr. 
Gaskell, Hammarskjold Principal, and teachers Mr.Swayze, Mrs. Katzen and 
Mrs. Amendola for their time and effort in planning this program and helping 
our children develop socially . We encourage you to utilize this wonderful 
opportunity for your children. Please see Mr.Gaskell's letter under FORMS 
for more information regarding The Peer Buddy Group. Thank you.
