South Florence High School celebrates Mix It Up At Lunch Day South Florence High School, celebrated its annual Mix It Up Day on October 22nd. This event pairs ninth grade students with special needs students as “buddies”. The purpose of the program is to help students foster friendships with other students without regard to their handicaps or disabilities. According to Bill Ruth, a teacher at South Florence High, “the students ate lunch together, played games, and had a good time getting to know each other”. The teacher cadets helped to facilitate the event. Mix It Up at Lunch Day is an international campaign that encourages students to identify, question and cross social boundaries. While schools can register to host a Mix It Up event on any day of the year, millions of students around the world participated on the official Mix It Up at Lunch Day, which was held on October 22nd.
