School Reviews
5 3/1/2024
I am the Parent of Kevin and Carlos Pulido. I relocated last year from Miami and my sister, Yvette Fernandez who had already moved up here assisted me in finding a school for my 2 sons that had IEP's so I needed a school that could work with their reading disabilities. She found your school online, did all the research, and went by to start the registration process I later went with her and my sons to complete and leave them for their first day last August 2023. It was the best decision I made. The staff and teacher are wonderful. My kids have really flourished and are getting the best grades that they've ever had. I have seen a real change in them and they have also told me how they love your school and don't want to change schools. Thank you for all that you do. Keep up the good work and thank you for welcoming us into your school.
