Students and teachers in the Schoolcraft High and Middle Schools gather each year to salute students who participate in Common Bond.
Common Bond in Schoolcraft schools matches mentors with students who are challenged during its once-a-month activities. It kicks off each year with the X-Treme Kick-off party for high school and middle school students. Over 200 came together to celebrate the 20th year of hosting this party with pizza, an obstacle course and the mechanical bull ride.
The event is headed by Amy Green, who is assisted by many other teachers in the school. Students help each other and learn to appreciate their special abilities, Green says.
