—University of Houston Clear Lake’s Student Council for Exceptional Children Chapter 1148 received the Texas Council for Exceptional Children’s Chapter Excellence Award at its annual convention.
Chapter 1148 was recognized for its leadership in coordinating events such as its annual Take-a-Buddy-to-the Fair, a carnival-like, fun and stimulating event for students with special needs that promotes social skill development as well as assists in the development of motor skills.
