“This establishment has been a gift from above for our entire family. My son was struggling with reading, executive functioning, speech, and practicing safety in this world prior to attending this program. His main teacher, Stephen Potts gained our son’s trust almost immediately by accepting him as his own child.

Stephen and Lucas worked really hard on social skills and now Lucas is a confident reader. I highly recommend this program for all children and especially those who struggle through traditional education programs. This staff is amazing and will bless your entire family.”
