The Best Buddies group enjoys a picnic at a local park

Best Buddies is a Kennedy High School club that enhances the lives of people with intellectual disabilities by providing opportunities for one-to-one friendships. Club members plan activities to help foster these friendships.

Best Buddies also participates in a “Choose to Include” campaign in March.  They also participate in a variety of unified sports activities throughout the school year sponsored by Special Olympics Iowa.

Students who would like to participate in Best Buddies for the 2024-25 school year should sign up. Click HERE for the link.

If you would like to make connections through sports and PE, check out the Unified PE class. This is a PE credit course. Go to our Physical Education page for more information on how to participate.
