For students with special needs, life at a big high school must be daunting. It\u2019s rare they find themselves the focus of attention or the inevitable popularity hierarchy. But for one night, just several precious hours, the spotlight\u2019s glare is on them as they bask in the love and attention of their parents and peers. Each is introduced to their own choice of music. It\u2019s Point Loma High\u2019s \u2018Unity Game\u2019 when varsity basketball jerseys are donned by those who otherwise would never have such an opportunity. Varsity boys and girls coach and help on the floor. The crowd cheers them on and, just for once, it\u2019s all about them. It\u2019s a night they will remember forever.<\/p>\n
