There is not enough resources for kids with special needs and the teachers don’t seem to be prepared enough either. My child had two teachers leave mid school year that were special educators, my child has been secluded in class, my child has been misunderstood. When I moved to this town, they had the best ratings, now looking 3 years later, their rating has dropped to average and no one has even given a rating for special education. They need more diversity and need to practice inclusion. My son is not getting all the help he can get and forget about looking for child care during the summer for autistic children in the area, there is none. You better plan on hiring a baby sitter or getting a family member to watch your child. And whatever you do, do not take your special needs child to NEST daycare located in Middlebury. They are the absolute worst. Call them and tell them your child is special needs and see what they say for yourself.

This school is great the staff is very good and i really like it even my kids.

had a deeply disappointing experience with this school, which led me to remove my child from their Kindergarten program. My son had no issues in Pre-K, he began urinating on himself and became fearful of going to school—clear signs of distress.What’s most troubling is the complete lack of patience and understanding from the staff. I even had to report a teacher for putting their hands on my child—an unacceptable situation no parent should have to face. Since then, it’s been nothing but ongoing issues.I find it suspicious that the school has turned off public reviews, which makes it harder for parents to be informed. I strongly believe I’m not the only parent who has faced these kinds of problems. Every child deserves a safe, supportive learning environment, and unfortunately, that was not our experience here.

Sending my son to school here with the biggest mistake of his life I’ve ever made letting him stay. Here was the second biggest mistake I ever made. We will be leaving after this year and I pray he’s not too far behind from his experiences here. This is supposed to be a hands-on magnet school. The only hands-on they have is on their laptop all day every day.
