Lawrence Hyschuk, 16, en- rolled at Sisler High last fall and now says going to a regular school is "easier than I antici- _|pated."

He. won a school merit award + land the Institute of Chartered Accountants prize for his per- / formance.

Although |poised and well-spoken, he had 4 been blind since the age of nine because of cataract growths.
