Davidson School students and staff wore purple shirts to school last Thursday to raise awareness of Rett Syndrome, a rare non-inherited genetic neurological disorder. They had a special guest with them Marlee Schneider and her mom Heidi who were sitting in the middle of the purple crowd. Marlee has Rett Syndrome and visited the school to pose for a picture with the school kids. October is Rett Syndrome Awareness Month. As a show of support, people throughout Canada have been lighting their homes and businesses with purple lights.
