Like pretty much any middle school kid, Greyson Chavez of Beaverton just wants to fit in with his classmates.
When they’d go out to eat, he’d always ask for the same thing— a cheeseburger, say – because he didn’t want anyone to know that he couldn’t read the menu.
In school, he crossed his fingers that he wouldn’t have to read aloud, because his classmates would hear him stumbling over hard words. And he tried his best to be inconspicuous whenever he got pulled out for special education sessions with an online program that was supposed to help catch him up — but didn’t.
