Year end reflection
I was in a public school in the special needs room where they taught me baby stuff. I am now at OMS, a private inclusion school where I learn grade level curriculum.
It has been a transitional year for me.
I am reborn.
I am so proud of myself.
I am here with a voice.
I am smart.
I am teachable.
I am a genius.
It is the public schools that failed me.
I especially want to say to the people
who didn’t believe in me:
You are wrong.
You destroyed me.
You made me feel like killing myself.
But I am strong.
I am going to live a meaningful life.
I am going to help others who cannot talk.
It is important to me that I want to tell my stories
so that more people understand people like me.
I want to be heard.
I have a voice.
