What people are saying

by a parent
Thursday, January 13, 2011

My son has been at Dodge for both K and 1st. They have a 'small' classroom for K/1/2 of 15:1:1 for kiddos with speech/communication delays that pulls from the Williamsville district. They incorporate a social skills curriculum using a methodology called Skill Streaming that has proved valuable to my son and is utilized throughout all grades and all students. Outstanding staff and many opportunities for parental involvement. We moved to the area from out of state and I could not have been choosier and (looking at the end result) happier with our decision.
