Kids Included

Inclusion doesn't always require big gestures. It can be as simple as:

👉 Ask, "Do you want to play with us?"
👉 Make room for one more person in the game.
👉 Wait your turn and give others the time they need.
👉 Cheer for everyone's effort, not just who wins.

The lessons children learn about inclusion today can shape the way they treat others for the rest of their lives.

Congratulations to John A. McDougall School, our 2026 Kids Included Team of the Year! 🎉

This incredible team embodies what inclusion looks like in action. Through collaboration, creativity, and a shared commitment to every student's success, they've created a classroom where children feel welcomed, supported, and empowered to thrive.

A special congratulations to school administrator Mr. Moccia, classroom teacher Mr. Campbell, educational assistant Ms. Hardman, and honorary classroom mascot Mrs. Hoppenpopper, whose playful personality, worldly stories, and thoughtful perspective have become a cherished part of the classroom community.

Thank you for showing what is possible when educators work together to ensure every child belongs. Your dedication is making a lasting difference in the lives of children and families every day.

When we focus on a child's strengths, interests, and unique way of experiencing the world, we help them thrive by building supportive environments around them, rather than expecting them to fit a particular mould.

This concept is the foundation that all of our work at Kids Included is built upon.
