Mikie Zuppardo is a great kid with great passion. Besides the fact that he is a very good bowler, I feel that his addition to the team would be an uplifting lesson for all. I hope they let him play. He deserves the chance!

I hope he is able to be on the team and participate like anyone else in the school should be able to, my brother is autistic and he was bullied his whole like because of it, transferred from school to school was never even given the option to play sports, he didnt even have the option to be in public schools until we fought for it his senior year, they are humans just like you and I and they shouldn't be looked at as criminals or anything other then what he is, in your case a boy just trying his best to play the sport he loves, I wish u the best of luck nd hope he gets all the support he needs!

Thank you all so much for your love and support. We can't believe how many people know about this already. Whoever made the petition thank you so much, but you are still anonymous. Michael & our family cannot wait to see where this gets us! Thank you all again so much.

Micheal deserves a chance like everyone else. Despite his disability his spirit is always there. This young man should be considered an inspiration for the team! Let him be on the team. Show your team spirit or is the coach lacking this?

It's time to think about a change In the school regulations and guidelines. Ive seen Mikey when I attended HHS. It's sad to see this happen to such a good guy. It's hard to find someone with so much drive to excel in something they love now a day. I hope we all can make his last year dream of Being one the bowling team a reality. Good luck Mikey u have my signature and vote. #letmikeybowl
Let him play
LET MIKEY BOWL !!!! DO WHATS RIGHT !!!
