(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I have nothing but good things to say about this school and the staff. I have gotten to know the staff quite well over the past two years here as I have a child with behavioral issues. Those issues are now minimal, especially at school, thanks to the support we receive from the staff at Silver Lake. They truly care about the students here.
