LINDA: S51-SAN

November

2024

Linda was promoted to the second grade this year, and her favorite subject is social studies. Despite the challenges she faces at home, Linda continues to excel in her lessons. She has been moved from one family to another every six months, never having a stable living situation. Her life has been filled with uncertainty as she switches from one place to the next, but Linda remains determined and dedicated to her education. Even though her life may be in shambles, Linda has developed a remarkable resilience. She adapts to every new environment and school she finds herself in, always doing her best in her studies. Her hardworking nature and ability to go with the flow, despite her difficult circumstances, are qualities that make her stand out as a strong and dedicated student. We are proud of Linda for her perseverance and the effort she puts into her education. Sponsored by: Jessica Reed

Linda’s home circumstances were very challenging and there appears to be some learning challenges as well.  Regrettably, she was actually demoted from first grade back to kindergarten 2. Unfortunately, in Liberia, there is no special education program for children like Linda.  One can only hope that given the right support from family and teachers; Linda will have a better school year.  She continues to live with her grandmother and dreams of being a businesswoman one day.  Sponsored by: Jessica Reed
