An eager, hard-working student, Yacine was diligently committed to her classwork but had trouble grasping the material. As the pandemic surged, Yacine fell even further behind \u2014 without one-on-one support from a special education teacher as required by her Individualized Education Program (IEP), and no remediation to help her adapt to the new remote learning environment, Yacine\u2019s progress in math and reading completely stalled.\r\n\r\nFama also was struggling, as she tried to navigate NYC\u2019s complex public school system.\u00a0 Though Fama speaks English, it is not her first language, and she was unsure of what some of the terms on her daughter\u2019s IEP meant, or how she could access information to help her make decisions about Yacine\u2019s educational rights. When the school failed to provide language support to allow her to participate meaningfully in her daughter\u2019s education, Fama would often be excluded from Yacine\u2019s special education planning.\r\n\r\nWhen an evaluation revealed that hearing loss, a language disorder, and specific learning disorders were behind Yacine\u2019s difficulties with verbal comprehension and her slower processing speeds, Fama and her AFC advocate identified a school that they hoped would be a better fit: one with smaller class sizes, evidence-based reading supports, and a safe environment where Yacine wouldn\u2019t be subjected to bullying from classmates who didn't understand her learning needs. AFC filed a hearing request to secure tuition for Yacine\u2019s placement at a more appropriate school, and fought for occupational therapy and the tutoring she would need to catch up to her peers.\r\n\r\nSince changing schools, Yacine\u2019s academic progress and her attitude towards school have changed completely. Though she entered her new school significantly behind grade level, Yacine graduated this June from 8th grade with her peers, and even won an award for academic perseverance! Fama recounts how Yacine now comes home each day bursting with stories about her day with friends, and how excited she is by what she\u2019s learning in the classroom. Yacine\u2019s teachers have seen that same progress, describing how much more confident Yacine has become, and how eagerly she now participates in class.","":null,"settings":""}},{"acf_fc_layout":"layout_pull_quote","_acfe_flexible_toggle":"","component_pull_quote":{"":null,"quote":"Before, Yacine put in hard work, but she wasn't making progress, and she was always struggling.
