Jamie Taylor and Kyle Anderson – Buddy Pair, Bartlett High School 2017

Jamie Taylor and Kyle Anderson were officially matched as a buddy pair through the Best Buddies School Friendship Program at Bartlett High School. This dynamic duo serves as a heartfelt reminder to everyone they meet of the power of friendship and its ability to change lives.

Pictured here with matching face paint at Bartlett High School’s “Olympics for Exceptional Athletes”, you can see the pure joy these two shares in their friendship. Daily hangout sessions during 7^th period at school, trips to the Memphis Zoo, a love for ice cream and dancing defines this pair.

Hitting the dance floor is one of this pair’s favorite things to do together, so much so, that Jamie took Kyle as her date to Bartlett High’s Annual “Snowflake Formal”. Formal has been a huge highlight in Kyle’s overall Best Buddies experience so far as he found himself truly included with his typical peers in experiencing this important teenage milestone.
