Special Olympics athlete finds out he got accepted into college ❤️❤️

This young man has been cared for by a lot of people. That's just lovely.

Never underestimate a kid with a disability, they are the most powerful beings on Earth. Congratulations young man, you did it.

[ajenkmeister]

Awww, congrats Steven!! I can only imagine how good that feels ❤

He’s been on all of my Special Olympics teams since the beginning of my Special Olympics career. He’s been on The Special K’s his whole life, and it’s amazing to watch him react to his acceptance letter from a University he’s told me he always wanted to go to. Steven is the man!!

[yolandamckenzie]

I’m here crying like he is one of my students.. never say our children can’t accomplish things 😢😢😢😢❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉

[Happybidr]

As the parent of a student with an IEP who has a brilliant mind but who struggled through college due to executive function challenges, this makes me smile!

[povertylevelphilanthropy]

WAY TO GO, STEVEN!!! We’re all so proud of you!

[bendornoff]

That’s so awesome as a special Olympics athlete myself that is amazing

One of the faculty was weeping and caught her breath as he was reading ...can you hear her?
She must love him so much

I was trying so hard to hold back my tears but they came gushing out of my eyes like a waterfall. Congratulations to you young man and enjoy your journey 💖

Oh wow, that made me cry... Congratulations Steven not only by being admitted to a school but by the support from the people behind you

[dylancrawford]

Congratulations Steven!! It’s also amazing to see a wonderful support team stand behind (what seems to be) a wonderful student and young man!!

Outstanding to him and to the teachers for caring about their students.

He reads better than 25% of my class, and they just passed them through without trying to correct or help them

[aprilvilliar]

Congratulations Steven and to everyone who showed you kindness along the way!

[WilliamL]

This is why teachers are amazing. They want the best for each of their students. Such a great moment.
