Qusay's educational journey was far from ordinary; it was an affirmation of the extraordinary potential within every individual. It all began with a visual assessment at the Bethlehem Arab Society for Rehabilitation in Beit Jala, a moment that would set the stage for an incredible transformation.
As the assessment results revealed, Qusay faced a challenging start. He had missed kindergarten, a delay that would undoubtedly make his path to self-reliance more difficult. Nevertheless, his parents' commitment to providing their son with the best opportunities was speechless. With their hearts set on his success, they enrolled Qusay in Al-Shurooq School.
From the very beginning, Qusay showed a bright personality that won over everyone he encountered. Yet, he carried some unhealthy behaviors stemming from his early environment. His dependence on his family for daily tasks posed a significant obstacle. Qusay's mother, in particular, sought guidance on how best to assist her child on his journey to independence. It was a shared dream, a goal that would demand a spirit of collaboration.
With the careful guidance of his dedicated teachers and therapists, and the support of his family, Qusay's world began to transform. Slowly but surely, he progressed from a student who struggled even with the most basic alphabets to someone who could read and write with increasing confidence. His communication skills improved significantly, allowing him to connect with his peers and express his thoughts and ideas.
Qusay engaged in individual and group psychological and social sessions with his fellow students, sharing a special one-on-one connection with his friend Ward. His progress was gradual, but it was marked by determination. He began to accept and follow instructions with the need for repetition and the generalization of concepts. When he struggled to understand complex content, his educators challenged him with patience and creativity, simplifying topics to help him grasp the material.
With the support of his loving family and the environment of Al-Shorouq School, Qusay Nidal Skafi began to rewrite the story of his life. He demonstrated that with determination, patience, and the right support system, obstacles could be conquered. Qusay was on a path to independence where he could shine and make a difference, not only for his family but also for the world.
This was more than just a success story; it was inspiring evidence of the extraordinary power of resilience and served as a reminder to all that with the right support and determination, we can all rise above our challenges and reach for the stars.
