I can not say enough good things about this school. My son loves it here. The faculty, staff and students are more like family. My son is ADHD, everyone at this school accepts him for who he is, and the teachers instead of giving up and getting exasperated used different methods to help him learn until they found the way that works best for him. He is now learning at the same pace as other students his age, had gained confidence, his self esteem is at an all time high. Not only is he on par with his grades, he is becoming a kind, caring, confident young man any parent would be proud of. This school is the answer to many prayers.
