She graduated without learning to read. Now she's suing her school.
Briefly

Aleysha Ortiz's journey through high school highlights a severe lack of support for students with learning disabilities, leaving her illiterate despite graduating with honors.
Despite excelling in her studies through speech-to-text technology, Ortiz alleges she received inadequate therapy and support, underlining systemic failures in special education.
Her persistent pleas for help were met with dismissal, reflecting broader issues in Hartford's public education system, which faces criticism from legislators and educators alike.
Ortiz's lawsuit not only seeks compensation but also brings attention to the troubling neglect experienced by students needing special education services in Hartford.
