Tough experience, lasting impact I graduated from WRA after three years, and I was NOT in any way a model student. It was not something I wanted, but I definitely needed it, and I faced it head-on. Less than four stars for how it is now, but five for my experience. It was incredibly challenging at first, but rewarding later on. The structure and transitions I experienced while at WRA—from the older program (community compliance) to the newer one (landing adaptive mastery)—forced me to grow in ways that didn’t always feel great at the time but were ultimately worthwhile, and my growth was always in a positive direction. I made meaningful connections with staff and peers, and I still miss some aspects, like Ms. Rose's amazing food (nothing compares!). However, nowadays it appears that the program has its impact as it seems students are more comfortable now. Overall, a tough yet transformative experience. My graduation speech did not do it justice. I needed a lot more time to actually reflect on my journey and appreciate it for what it was.
