SHPS has been home to my son for over 6 years. He has made friends that will last him a lifetime and has developed the foundation of discipline that will prepare him well for High School and beyond.

I am very sad and dissapointed that the school is closing in June. Primarily because we were told in a mtg last yr. that they would not allow the school to close and they would work with us to avoid that.
