A friend, who is a teacher at a different district, recommended we moved to this school district. My son had a speech impediment and fine motor skill delays. His original IEP, they could not figure out how intelligent he was, because he had a hard time getting one complete reply out. He has been at Bethalto East for 1-1/2 yrs of 1/2 day pre-k, Kindergarten, and now 1st grade. I recently came across his old IEP and was reminded of his struggles early on. He is a totally different child now. He no longer has an IEP and is blowing us and the teachers away with his grades. Last year I received a call from the school, my son was displaying disfluency issues and they started working to reinforce the techniques they had taught him. I was so impressed that they were monitoring him and being proactive. I cannot say enough about this school and district!!!! We loves the teachers and the Principal too.
