Rehan Staton a former sanitation worker accepted to Harvard Law School.
Staton had a very humble start in life.
He used to haul trash and clean dumpsters to make a living.
According to nbcwashington.com, Stalon lost his mom when he was only 8 years old and his dad highhandedly raised him and his brother, Reggie. The native of Bowie revealed life has been very difficult. His father had to work three jobs to raise them.
Stalon also had to work as a trash collector and a dumpster cleaner to support himself and his family.
From hauling trash and cleaning dumpsters to make ends meet, Stalon is now pursuing his dream of going to Harvard Law School. He earned his undergraduate degree from the University of Maryland. While attending the University of Maryland, he still worked as a trash collector before going to class.
After high school I got rejected by every college I applied to, so i opted to work in the sanitation field to help my pops out.
A chance to go to college came and My brother chose to drop out so I could go.
Years later… I got accepted to Harvard Law School.

In spite of the many challenges, a determined Stalon managed to graduate. Stalon is now heading to Harvard Law School.
“The only reason I made it to where I’m at is because people helped me out of the kindness of their heart,” Staton was quoted as saying on nbcwashington.com.
As someone who struggled and is now realising his dreams of pursuing advanced education, he plans to give back by offering others free LSAT tutoring.
