I have wonderful students! They are bright and caring children, but unfortunately, where they live severely interferes with learning. Their home environments are unpredictable and sometimes very scary for a small child. They attend a public school that welcomes all learning abilities and styles, physical abilities and disabilities and we create a loving and nurturing environment for them.
