“He’s more calm. I feel like it’s because the stress from school is not there anymore. They give us a little bit of leeway, and that’s what we needed. Onboarding was fairly easy and very accommodating. The teachers and the administrative office were very thorough. As far as our equipment, they provided him with everything he needed.”

“[You get] a textbook for the answers, as well as little hints and tips on what they were learning and what you should do with your student. They also have tons of technical resources. They set me up for success as a Learning Coach to have workbooks, phone numbers, and everything else to move forward in the curriculum.”
