    Student Intern Nick Jones with the Sales and management Team at Park Cities Ford Lincoln August 2014.

A Highland Park High School senior with special needs is making his way in the world and quite a name for himself at a local car dealership. Nick Jones is now featured in a video shown nationwide to Ford dealers. Nick has Down Syndrome, but despite his challenges, works part time at Park Cities Ford Lincoln in Dallas. He has always been interested in cars, especially the Ford Mustang. Now, thanks to a team of people who care about him – his parents, friends, Highland Park High School and the dealership, Nick is building his independence.

Park Cities Ford Lincoln hired Nick as an intern in February and he is now on the payroll, working five days a week after school as a part time employee, supporting the Sales Department and keeping the front entrance, showroom and cars tidy. Jeff Enright, managing partner at Park Cities, says hiring Nick has made a great impact on the dealership and its employees.

The video Nick is featured in is part of the Consumer Experience Movement, which Ford launched in 2011. The program is a way for Ford and dealerships to communicate/interact with customers on a personal level. The video has been shared with dealers nationwide this month and serves as an example of meaningful community involvement.

Our girls have continued to homeschool through school closures, just as we’ve done for over a decade.

Online classes for many though have been an adjustment, and they can really slow down a home network with multiple devices.

Luckily #Verizon offers fast, reliable 5G internet in the #Dallas area!
