Ministry Corner

Meet Willie! He is a wonderful student in our community of Don Bosco. Recently he was referred to P.E.E. (Programa Educacion Especial) by his teacher because his skills in writing did not match those of his peers. Upon arrival into the program our coordinator, Dasyi, immediately recognized how we could help him. Until now Willie gripped his pencil by the eraser instead of near the point. As you can imagine this made his letter formations a little off and his writing speed incredibly slow. Thanks to your giving we were able to purchase some rubber pencil grips and Willie is now on his way! He will spend just a little while longer meeting a few hours each week with our special ed teacher to help teach him proper letter formation, but soon enough he should be up to par with his peers. Sometimes it is the easy fixes that give us all a little push!
