Cheered on by the younger students, Deanna sought out her Wilson Reading System<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> (WRS) teacher, Karen Sly, for a hug and photo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Deanna progressed from receiving special education services to ranking among the top 35 students in her class. Her final three-year individualized education program (IEP) evaluation indicated she no longer qualified for those services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Deanna, who struggled early with decoding, and verbal and reading comprehension skills, began taking special education classes in fourth grade. That\u2019s when she met Karen, an intervention specialist. Determined to help Deanna, Karen selected her as a WRS Level I and II practicum student outside of school.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Deanna\u2019s drive to learn, combined with WRS\u2019s repetition and phrasing practice, helped her to achieve reading fluency. She became what Karen affectionately calls a \u201cword nerd,\u201d looking deeply into the structure of the English language.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt gave her a sense of accomplishment,\u201d explained Karen. \u201cAs her confidence grew in reading, it began to show in other areas of her life.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Using her newfound courage, Deanna dove into other interests\u2014earning school awards and recognition at a performance conference. She took media classes and participated in SkillsUSA, a career and technical student organization. Just before graduation, Deanna completed WRS Step 12.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Deanna\u2019s inspiring success will help future students. Karen and her fellow WRS-certified instructors used Deanna\u2019s story to champion expanding WRS instruction beyond elementary school and it\u2019s now offered in middle school.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;Congratulations on your graduation, Deanna!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While wearing her cap and gown, graduating senior Deanna joined a processional through her Ohio elementary school as part of a Jefferson Area Local School District tradition.
