“Jershika dedicated her song to the fourth and fifth grade teachers who helped Maple discover she had dyslexia, and it was filled with emotion and power…”
— Taste of Country

 

Jershika Maple described the alienation she felt as a 4th grader in Louisiana being held back because of her dyslexia. But she made it through and thanked her teachers for helping to save her life.

She dedicated her singing of King & Country’s God Only Knows and reflected, “God knew that those teachers would see something that I couldn’t see.”
