Open Quote We moved to Farson, WY in August 2010. Our oldest son had been diagnosed with being drastically developmentally delayed. The school we moved from told us it would take him a minimum of three years to catch up to where he needed to be. Because of the small class sizes and the amazing teachers in the special education program and their expectations for their students, our son was able to go off of all IEP's in just one year in Farson. The teachers are amazing and you can really tell they love the children and want the very best for them. Close Quote
