Chef McCarthy moved his new Culinary Arts students from
their desks to the kitchen.
Mrs. Leith is giving away the last of the tomatoes grown by
the Horticulture students to Love Inc., a local non-profit.
Pumpkins are popping up as part of the lessons in classrooms.
The students are starting to talk about Christmas break.
And the DSAW held their annual Down Syndrome Buddy Walk at
the Milwaukee County Zoo.
The Buddy Walk is an exciting event for the students. They
have the opportunity to participate in a fun activity on a slow Sunday.
They interact with family, friends and staff.
They get a chance to see their favorite animals.
But most important, the students have an active role in
raising awareness for a cause with which they are intimately familiar. Someone
they care about, whether a friend, a family member, a classmate, or maybe even
themselves, has Down syndrome.
For Shepherds College, this is an important event, not just
to promote our program, but to empower our students to serve others in an
impactful and meaningful way.

The DSAW walk was a great event ... again! We thoroughly enjoyed spending the afternoon with the Shepherds College students and our favorite daughter! The DSAW walk is where we first learned about Shepherds College so it is a favorite event for us.
