It's been an amazing experience. My son always wants to go to school and never wants to leave. Any time I've had a question, it's immediately answered. Any concerns I've voiced, Ms. Elisa has made me felt heard and put forth an action plan. I've seen such a great difference in my son and he amazes me with all he learns at school.
