At a recent Howland Board of Education meeting, Sarah Lanham, a kindergarten student at Howland Springs Primary School, was recognized with the Pillar of Inspiration Award.
Sarah has Osteogenesis Imperfecta (Brittle Bone Disease). As the name suggests, her bones are extremely vulnerable to fractures. She recently underwent surgery to place a steel rod in her leg to assist with walking.
She is unable to participate in recess or gym and instead goes to the clinic to play board games or cards with our school nurse! Even a routine fire drill requires her to wait patiently for a wheelchair to help her exit the building safely.
Despite these challenges, Sarah comes to school each day with a smile. She enjoys her friends, works hard in the classroom, and is surpassing all kindergarten standards! She is also quick to offer a hug to classmates and staff!!
Sarah was presented with the Pillar of Inspiration Award. Her dad, Shane, is pictured with her.
