Simeon

Simeon slept through most of his freshman year of high school. Overwhelmed by severe anxiety, he failed all but two classes and eventually refused to attend school altogether. Despite his mom’s best efforts to help, Simeon isolated himself in his room, spending his days sleeping and playing video games.

After enrolling at LSS Residential Services’ Summit Oaks Center, Simeon's transformation was remarkable. Not only did he emerge from his shell, but he also became a star student—earning a prestigious scholarship to jumpstart his college career.
