Football Players At Queen Creek High School Stand Up For A Bullied Special-Needs Student

  If you ever doubted you could make a difference by a simple act of kindness, think again.  This story is such a sweet reminder, our actions carry substantive weight. How incredibly wonderful it is to see thoughtful actions of teenagers having a positive influence. Chy Johnson is a freshman at Queen Creek High School. She has a brain disorder distinctly setting her apart from other girls her age. She became an easy target for “mean girls (girl bullies)”to taunt.
