The lower student/teacher ratio allows teachers to build tight relationships and individualize instruction. They use diverse ways to include many learning styles.

There is more time to discuss, encourage, teach, inspire, counsel, model, discipline, challenge, and share the journey.

Very high. The middle school community is remarkable at building lives. The elementary school is less familiar to me, but it has been observed that the teachers are highly dedicated.

The Bridges program was just what my autistic son needed to prepare for middle school. This seems to be where Wake County keeps a lot of its well-qualified special needs teachers.
