What people are saying

by a parent
Wednesday, August 24, 2016

My brother and I went to this school when we were younger and it really helped us prepare for our future. We both went to college I finished with a masters degree in accounting and he finished with an aerospace engineering degree.

My son now goes there now and the teachers are still amazing. My son had numerous problems beginning school. He would sleep in class, be disruptive, and never could concentrate. Instead of parent blaming the teachers looked for other explanations and found them. His kindergarten teacher recognized his giftedness and suggested he take the test which confirmed it. His first grade teacher recognized he was dyslexic and after he started those classes he is now caught up in grade level reading. Finally his GT teacher recognized his excessive sleepiness in her evaluation for his behavior for his dr. That evaluation proved to be instrumental in the dr.'s diagnosis of sleep apnea for which he needed surgery. Currently he is doing fantastic!

The only con I would say is that since I was there they replaced Spanish with theatre and I think learning any foreign language would be more beneficial than theatre. Close Quote
