Despite Serious Learning Disabilities, Great Falls Teen Fulfills College Dream - washin... - 0 views

  • He had to work hard. He often woke up early to study before school and studied for hours in the evening. He went to summer school and retook tests.
  • On Monday morning, he joined his younger sister, Rachel, on a stage at the Daughters of the American Revolution Constitution Hall and became a graduate of one of the nation's top high schools.
  • Thaller's story is familiar to many students with learning disabilities who must work two or three times harder than their classmates, often with less results.
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • He repeated kindergarten, then first grade, until he was in the same grade as his younger sister. But he continued to lag far behind his peers. By the time he reached sixth grade, he was still reading on a first- or second-grade level.
  • Low scores on cognitive tests prompted many medical professionals and educators to say it would be impossible for Thaller to ever attend college. Many suggested he pursue a diploma with fewer requirements or transfer to a special school with a less academic focus.
  • A major breakthrough came in middle school. Thaller's mother would read him chapters from the Harry Potter series at night. He was so impatient for her to get to the next chapter that he started reading ahead, pushing himself to understand the vocabulary and follow the story.
