South Haven High School will host an INCLUSION NIGHT this Friday (2/9) when the Rams take on the Coloma Comets. The evening will be sponsored by the school’s Peer to Peer and Be Nice Programs. Special activities will include a PEERS vs Be Nice exhibition game, North Shore Elementary’s therapy dog Kiri, special Be Nice uniforms, and plenty of information about inclusion and mental health topics.

South Haven’s PEER TO PEER PROGRAM is an accredited class that pairs students with special needs (our PEERS) with students in general education (our LINKS) in a one-on-one partnership. The class focuses on socialization, independence and life skills, and creates a mutually beneficial friendship for everyone involved.
Be Nice is a statewide mental health initiative that aims to normalize talking about, and seeking help for, students’ mental health challenges. Our club’s goal is to “created an accepting and safe place for students of South Haven to learn about mental health and know that they are not alone.”
Come out on Friday night to help support the Rams, and this great cause.
