					<description><![CDATA[Greely Middle School 4-5 students recently completed a special inclusion video project in partnership with The Cromwell Center, showcasing the power of kindness, acceptance, and belonging.
Over the course of more than three weeks, a dedicated group of students volunteered their lunch and recess times to rehearse, collaborate, and bring an important message of inclusion to life. Through their hard work, they not only created a meaningful video but also built new friendships, strengthened teamwork skills, and demonstrated outstanding leadership within our school community.
A special thank you goes to Jane Kilbride-Dupuis, MS-SLP and Civil Rights Team Advisor, for leading the project, and to Functional Life Skills teacher Siobhan Bogle, whose creativity and technical expertise brought the students’ vision to the screen.
The completed video premiered for participating students before being shared with families and the entire Greely Middle School 4-5 student body. The project will also be featured at The Cromwell Center’s 2026 Celebrating Inclusion Dinner & Auction on June 18, helping to further promote understanding and appreciation of inclusive communities.
We are incredibly proud of these students for using their voices to make a positive impact and for helping create a more welcoming and inclusive school for all.]]></description>
