- Rating:
(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I was very pleased with the interaction between the teachers and students. I particularly liked the independent living course my daughter took. I believe she learned many good life skills. I would recommend this school as they are nice, flexible, organized, helpful and truly dedicated to their students.
