Students Jesse Cooper, Drew Gibbs and Zeke Grissom were all nominated for homecoming king at Community High School's basketball homecoming ceremony.

The teens got together and decided that the winner would turn over the honor to junior Scotty Maloney, who has Williams Syndrome, a neurological disorder that inhibits learning and speech.

This is another example of parents who got it right....kudos to you all!:rocker:

Thank you for posting this. Sometimes when I sit here and read about all these savage killings I lose hope for humanity and a story like this brings it back.
