Elaine began her journey in the FSDB L. Daniel Hutto Early Learning Center (ELC) at just three years old. Like many children born during the pandemic, she faced early challenges with limited communication and social interaction. But everything began to shift once she entered the ELC’s nurturing, language-rich environment.

One of Niklas' favorite memories is enjoying the beach with his family. While his younger five siblings play in the water, he sits back and takes it all in: the beautiful smell of the ocean, the feeling of sand under his toes, the sounds of seagulls flying overhead, and the waves crashing onto the shore. Though he cannot see, Niklas has never lost his resolve or enjoyment of this sighted world.
