The grounds were just really pretty and well kept.

Since I was rushing I left my car lights on and my car battery died. When I came back to my car and noticed that my car wouldn't turn on I walked to the security gate and told them about my dilemma. Right away they send someone to help me and give my car a boost. They were so nice and made sure my car was fine before they left.

My 9 year old son just started his 3rd year at this wonderful school, and it has been amazing for…read moreus! They really understand him, and his social-emotional issues. The small class size allows for very individualized attention. He is (like many of the students) an uneven learner. He reads and does math way above grade level, but needs help with writing and expressive language (but some children have more typical learning difficulties). Each family is assigned a social worker to meet with on a regular basis, and the social workers also go into the classrooms to work on social skills through "friendship" and "games" groups. There is a "black & white" notebook that goes back and forth every day, providing a means of valuable communication between the teachers and parents. He has met some great friends here, and there is a warm parent community. We can speak freely with each other about our children's "issues" - we're all in this together! So happy we found this little gem of a school! P.S. The Parents' Association hosts a wonderful lecture series on a variety of topics, mostly concerning special needs children.

I have a long standing relationship with the Director, Samantha Feinman M.S.Ed., TSHH, and the Operations Manager Casey Schmalacker, and have always been grateful for their support, wisdom, extensive knowledge, and genuine kindness. My overall experiences with New Frontiers In learning have exceeded my expectations. I have grown over time since starting here and I have become more confident in myself and my work and gained a better understanding of who I am personally and academically through this coaching center. Coaches and academic leaders such as Casey, Samantha, and Lesley Hayes MAT, ADHD-CE (Coordinator) have helped many people like me reach our goals and understand what we want for the future personally, academically, and within our internships/volunteer work/fellowships/schools etc. My strengths became stronger, and I became aware of my areas of growth and continue to work hard at overcoming them.

I would definitely recommend New Frontiers In Learning to anyone who is or knows someone who is interested or needs extra help.

The letter made no mention of me and our uncle then intentionally omitted my name as the legal next of kin and signed for our father's body and had him cremated, which my father did absolutely not want. He still has the remains and will not return them to my sister. I even checked with their corporate headquarters and they lack any actual procedures for notifying next of kin. My number was on a speed dial button on my sister's phone in her room and they just communicate with any relative that appears before them and they refuse to even try to rectify some semblance of the situation saying "it is a family matter."
