Janiyah

Our Stories

When Janiyah first started at Clarke, completing a sentence was difficult for her, remembers her mother, Shika. And soon she was a completely different child, says Shika. Janiyah moved on to a mainstream kindergarten classroom in the fall of 2018, learning and playing with her peers with typical hearing. Janiyah can express herself clearly and confidently— speaking in complete sentences, and singing and dancing around the house to her favorite songs.
