Though commonly seen in day to day life, it can become an area of conflict within schools and areas outside of school. Our scope of mental disability specifically involves students with learning disabilities who are put at a disadvantage when attempting to follow the school's curriculum. Schools often provide aids to assist students who suffer from varying levels of learning disabilities. These aids do everything from teach each individual a uniquely structured learning plan to helping them navigate the school every day. Our goal is to better understand the students suffering from learning disability as well as those who accompany them every day. We hope to do this so that we can become better classmates as well as friends. Educating ourselves will also allow us to help teach our classmates so they can provide a more comfortable environment to those dealing with a learning disability. We do this in the hope of creating future opportunities to those with mental disability so that they can live their life just like anybody
