I have had two children attend SPSL and have never regretted that decision. It prepares children for a rigorous college preparatory high school curriculum and does so in a safe, loving, and supportive environment. In addition to strong academics, I`ve been especially impressed with their commitment to inclusivity and diversity. All are welcome! The community at SPSL is second to none. I would highly recommend SPSL to other families!
