Autism Awareness Parade & Carnival

Sierra School of Gilbert families, students, and staff came together to celebrate our annual community autism awareness parade and carnival.

The Sierra Gilbert community filled the streets with support and excitement. Our carnival included a bounce house, snow cones, snacks, and a petting zoo.

Everyone created blue tie-dye shirts to wear, and each class made banners to display along the parade route.
