Very caring staff who always put my kids'' needs first. They do fun events and have helped my kids so much! My kids were just treated like they were dumb at the other school we went to. Here they are starting to believe they can do stuff and have learned to read! They have a lot of after-school programs here for grades 3-5, but nothing for the little guy.
