On Friday, October 4, California Sen. Anthony Portantino attended Claremont High School’s home varsity football game against Charter Oak to present the team’s longtime manager Christopher Clark with “an award for his dedication to promoting inclusion within the team,” a Claremont Unified School District newsletter read.

In May, the Claremont High School student attended the Special Education Local Plan Area Administrators of California Legislative Sharing Day in Sacramento as a guest of the East San Gabriel Valley SELPA and told Portantino of his experience with the team. Portantino promised to attend a game the following season.
