Meet Lola

This young lady has been with us for more than two months. When she first arrived, she could only count to 8 and didn’t recognize numbers above 5 by sight. She also only knew about 6 letters and no sounds. She attends school on-site here at the Shelter and is in Ms. Anaiya’s elementary class. By the end of the first quarter of the school year, she can now count to 30 and identifies numbers up to 20 when shown out of sequence. She also knows 24 letters and matching sounds! This sweet girl is overcoming memory issues and a language delay. Her hard work, along with the patience and caring of Ms. Anaiya, have allowed her to make huge progress. We are so proud of her!

The best thing that I love about the Shelter is the acceptance. No matter where any of us came from, we are accepted here.

I tried a cupcake for the first time.

Kylee, age 6

While at the Shelter, I went from an 8th grade math level to almost a 12th grade level. I’m pretty proud of that.
