Today's highlight was the activity 'We all fit together' where all the students and teachers were given a puzzle piece to decorate. All the pieces were then fit together on a display wall to show that all of us fit in together just the way we are no matter how different.
When teachers receive the heartfelt gratitude it just motivates and encourages us to do even better and try to achieve more. One such heartfelt gratitude was expressed today by Mariyam Isneen, mother of Ammaar Bin Ahmed, Grade 4 A on Facebook.
"Today, I would like to express my heartfelt
gratitude to my son's teachers and MS as a whole.
Thank you, for never leaving my child
behind. Whether its knowledge based or extra curricular activities, he was
always given the equal opportunity just like any other child. In fact, he was
encouraged and pushed to extra miles to being part of all school activities.
Thank you for those extra efforts. Thank you for the love and kindness. 
Even when I had doubts that he could do it,
they encouraged. They pushed me and him to try. To try harder. To reach every
milestone.
Words are never enough to thank you for
your love, determination and hard work.
When I said Pre Cub will be fine for him,
they said no, they encouraged me to enrol him in Cub Scout.
I doubted he could do the tasks. But the
teachers had confidence in him. I'm glad that they went an extra mile in
convincing me. Because he surprised me with his enthusiasm in completing the
tasks, not to mention that I discovered his best handwritings in these work.
And many more good things came out of it. Alhamdhulillah.
Again, I said no to Cub scout camp. But they
were adamant.
I said no because he cannot do certain
things alone, without my help. It was close to impossible for him to spend an
entire day and night without us. But they said he will try and he can.
They built so much motivation in him that
overnight he learned to do those things alone without our help. That was one of
the most important milestones of his life. Masha Allah. It left me in happy
tears to see him become more confident and independent.

Also MS conducts reading programmes for the
students. And my child was not left behind. He was given the equal opportunity
to be part of the programme too. Maybe a little differently than the mainstream
one. But my son has come so far in it, it surprises me sometimes. His teachers
encourage and motivate him to try harder. And I can see him do exactly that.
And improving his reading skills day by day. Alhamdhulillah. He loves those
badges he gets when he completes each task. Those badges mean so much to him. 
These things could have never been possible
without his lovely teachers. Especially Aishath
Labeega Miss and Aishath Suiza Miss. You are true gems! I appreciate every
effort you put in, wholeheartedly. Just know that you are doing an amazing job
in teaching our kids. You are special too. Just like them. Because as a parent,
I know its not an easy task to teach and care for children with Autism
Spectrum Disorder and ADHD . You must always be extra patient, extra loving,
extra determined and extra strong to do that. So I applaud you all for the
amazing job you're doing and for helping my son reach so many milestones and
improve with every passing day. I couldn't ask for more.
May Allah bless you all immensely for the
amazing work that you do. May Allah reward you all."
We are extremely grateful beyond words for Ms. Isneen's profound and heartfelt thanks and we look forward to make a difference in every child's life.
