The Reach School

To Whom It May Concern,

I have been a Reach School parent for 4 years.  My son, who is now in Kindergarten, started at the Reach School when he was 3.  When he started he was almost completely nonverbal. He couldn't touch his nose when asked and had to be taught to point.  He had so many challenges ahead of him. I had read the research that pointed towards the earliest years of intervention as being the most critical to a child with Autism. I hoped with all my heart that the school could meet his challenges. 

"My daughter adored her experience at The REACH School. She developed an immediate connection with her teachers, support staff and peers. In fact, she has asked to visit her teachers during the summer! As a result of her experience she has developed skills she will retain with her for life: tolerance, compassion and confidence. I feel fortunate to have found a preschool with such fantastic experience and commitment to children."

"Because of the comprehensive, developmentally sound and progressive programming offered through The Reach School, we chose to enroll both our son who is diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome, as well as his younger sibling, who is considered typically developing. We have often described our experiences with Reach as miraculous; as the profound positive impact made by the school and it's staff has extended into the very corner's of our family experience. In addition to equipping both our children with the solid skills needed to navigate some of life's sometimes perplexing social interactions and emotional trials, the staff at Reach supported our family as an entity in and of itself; very often exceeding our greatest expectations as parents. The Reach School provided every member of our family, children and adults alike, with personalized support, a cutting edge social and emotional education and, most importantly, the language and understanding we needed to celebrate our unique family."
