My daughter is on a variance at L Thomas Heck. Prior to attending she lacked confidence in class participation and in her abilities overall. She went from wanting to stay home everyday to being excited to go to school. The staff and administration and especially Ms. Walker for granting the variance. This time of year we have many things we share we are thankful for....this school is amazing and so very grateful my daughter is a student there....did I mention she went from failing grades to high honor roll! Love, love, love!!!

They don't overwhelm the children. They really make sure the lesson is understood, which doesn't take four hours a night to do.

This school is now in its 5th year and has a reputation for its excellent arts programs. Now it is an A rated school as well. In my opinion, this school is a great place for students to get their middle school education. The teachers are great, the office cares about the kids and knows you by name when you come in. This school gives you a great education with the friendly atmosphere of a private school. I highly recommend this school!
