Rock Your Socks on Friday, March 21!
Wear colorful, mismatched socks on Friday to celebrate World Down Syndrome Day with the Brackett community!
Every year on March 21, people all around the world come together to celebrate World Down Syndrome Day by wearing brightly colored, mismatched socks. March 21 is symbolic because people with Down syndrome have 3 copies of their 21st chromosome.
Wearing colorful, mismatched socks is a visual representation of the unique characteristics of individuals with Down syndrome, as chromosomes, which are shaped like socks, are what make each person unique.
