School Reviews

This school goes out of its way to make your child reach there full potential. They will work hard with the kids like they did with my son when he transferred from public school. The first day other kids were introducing themselves to him and he was accepted by the other children almost immediately. As for the Teachers, they are the best hands down and will stay late and even give out their cell phone numbers to the kids in case they have a question they can text them. During this difficult time my son has autism and one of his Teachers has brought lunch to him more than once just to check on him. No other school will ever come close to this school.
