Special Education

Baron Buddies

Adaptive sports & inclusive community built by and for our students.

Who we are & what we're doing

Baron Buddies is an initiative from the Special Education Department at Bonita Vista High School focused on inclusion through adaptive sports and community connection. Our goal is simple: remove barriers so every student—regardless of ability—can participate, belong, and thrive.

We provide unified sports opportunities, special education prom representation, and reliable transportation to events like Homecoming and Prom. Your support helps us fund equipment, transportation, event accessibility, and experiences that build confidence and community.

At Bonita Vista High School, we are proud to have a special education prom court and a unified sports program that brings students together across abilities. These shared experiences foster belonging and build lasting confidence.

We also offer shuttle transportation so students can take part in dances, games, and celebrations without logistical barriers. Your generosity ensures accessibility and consistent participation.
