Open Quote My child was extremely nervous about changing schools last August, and my wife and I began to question our decision. However,now that we are almost finished with 4th grade, I can honestly say that it was the best decision for all of us. A particular LA 4th grade teacher embraced our son and his unique personality. Since he did not like reading and writing, she incorporated his interests into many activities and also opened up his world to various authors and genres. Now our son is an avid reader and even keeping a journal. We are now even more excited now because she will be teaching 5th grade next year. Kittredge teachers go the extra mile and we are hoping that our 2nd grader will get in next year. Close Quote
