Blaire's use of a wheelchair would be considered an exceptionality, as it is a unique characteristic that sets her apart from other cheerleaders on the squad. It should be noted that the term "handicap" is generally considered outdated and offensive in many contexts, as it implies a limitation or disadvantage that is inherent to the person rather than the environment or society around them.
