This past Saturday, the Wellesley Middle School Best Buddies Club led by teachers Liz Egan and Karen Venditto won the Top Fundraising School Team award at the Best Buddies Milton 5K Gobbler road race and walk.
Team “WMS Best Buddies is Awesome” upset Milton High, which had won the award for the past 3 years. The WMS team boasted 40-plus students, teachers, parents and staff members who ran or walked the 5K.
Best Buddies, if you don’t know, fosters one-to-one friendships between students with and without intellectual and developmental disabilities.
