AVS has a philosophy of people first, not grades or accomplishments. I now look at my kids that way -- kids first. It's not about their disability or their ability to accomplish anything. It's about who they are. |
I was bored. I didn't like the time constraints, and the assignments seemed tedious and redundant. |
I was standoffish at first, but they opened me up because they wanted to get to know who I was. Without AVS, I would have dropped out of school. |
