He struggled with recognizing the letters in his name, identifying different shapes, and consistently could not follow two-part instructions.

Mrs. Richards has called a meeting with his parents to address her concerns.Harper, 3rd gradeHarper attends Sunset Elementary School and has been placed in a class with 25 other 3rd graders.

Harper also loves reading about the weather, somewhat obsessively, and can share weather facts and details for hours.
