sophomores F , Qing ii Being handicapped and going to high school might have been one of the biggest challenges a teenager could face. Tim LaMonica, sophomore, faced up to the challenge victoriously. LaMonica found himself in a wheelchair as a result of a motorcycle accident that occurred in the spring of his ninth grade year. He ran a stop sign and was hit by a car. LaMonica came to school third period and stayed the rest of the day. Getting from place to place was his biggest daily hassle, since someone had to help him around. I don't mind the wheelchair because teachers look after me, he said. LaMonica often found himself the victim of glances, stares and whispers. 0oo's and ahh's were frequent, but LaMonica really didn't care for the attention. I don't think people should feel sorry for me, he said. It was my fault. LaMonica found a weakness in the Little Rock Public School system. During the first nine weeks, he had a tutor assigned by LRPS, but he didn't expect to receive full credit because the tutor lost some of his papers. In a classroom situation, the student would have been given the benefit of the doubt, he thought. By the end of school, LaMonica hoped to be able to abandon his wheels and stand on his own two feet.
