Open Quote Very impressed with our neighborhood school. Our son spent two years at his previous school repeating kindergarten and struggling hard. He is on an IEP. In one short year they have him almost completely caught up with other kids his class and he is playing with others at recess and not keeping to himself. Miss Conn and the LRC staff have done an awesome job with our boy. Close Quote
