What people are saying

by a parent
Friday, October 4, 2013

As a parent, I'm impressed with Aborn. Excellent teachers, supportive environment for kids to learn and for parents to participate to the degree they can be involved. There is a real educational community here with administrators, teachers, students and parents - and the community at large. My son is thriving and is always excited to go to school. I found a gem in Aborn when it became clear that although Lynn Public Schools can't (so far) dedicate special attention to really academically advanced children since most of the funds and resources go to those who are behind, Aborn is flexible enough to adapt to my son's level and provide extra work and more challenging activities so he can remain interested and keep progressing to the level of his potential. I am SO happy to be part of the Aborn community! Close Quote
