Maine South Earns National Banner Recognition as a Unified Champion School
Article Written by Thomas Hurley, Communications Department Intern
Special Olympics Illinois recently named Maine South one of only a few schools selected as a National Banner recipient. This statewide recognition honors particular schools’ exceptional commitment to inclusion among students and staff members. Beginning in 2018, it has only been awarded to 17 schools. Maine South is one of only four to renew its status.
To celebrate this achievement, the school held an assembly recently involving the entire school community.
