I must also mention the speech teacher, Ms. DiGiambattista; she worked with him at every grade level and he was released/graduated from his IEP later in the year, 5th grade. Thank You to her, as well. Mr. O'Sullivan introduced Ukelele Club to the school, and we attended the concert this past tuesday morning. Thanks to him. I must also mention the Librarian, Ms. Witalka, for her years of service. She assists students with the Book Fairs, which seemed to be a bit more frequent than in my day (twice a year). Today was the fifth grade Promotion ceremony. After hearing all of the speeches, I was getting reminded that our son has been attending this school since Kindergarten, with Mrs. Cox, so for six years, our son has been here, and it is bittersweet (he is moving on to middle school). I am so glad that we moved to the area, and enrolled him into this school. He had so many good teachers! I want to give everyone Kudos here! (Not many people know me, they know my husband more, since he is the day to day go-to parent. But I really want to express our gratitude for your contribution in shaping young minds. The teaching culture is very strong here.) Ms. Johnson, our son's fifth grade teacher, was phenomenal, incorporating fun into her lessons. Her classroom's theme was Star Wars. She had some challenges but she worked through all of them and really put her heart and soul into teaching. She promised the class if they all made an improvement, a goal that they'd work towards, that she'd reward them with a Panda Express Party. This was with her own money. We really appreciate her. This year also had two field trips, to their possible middle school, Lawrence, and to the Smith Center, to see a presentation. I will also mention the Fun Run and Olympics Field Day (the classes represented a country, like Sri Lanka), that was fun to see. I am lucky that hubby has taken lots of video, so we can remember these moments, to relive them, so to speak. Also, his pictures for the Raiders Camp were used in the Yearbook. Again, we express our sincere gratitude to all of you there at Roger M. Bryan who impacted our son's life in a positive way. Many many thanks to you!

This year and the previous year she was stolen from. Last year my daughter was stolen file by her own teacher, and this year all of her stuff was stolen by god knows who. My daughter did not enjoy this school because staff and teachers were very rude to her, and she came home everyday with something new to complain about. My daughter was bullied the whole year this year nonstop. She took yearbook photos and as I was looking at her and her class I seemed to notice that everyone's picture was bright and colorful while hers is dark and grey and dull. If you're thinking of enrolling your child into this school please put my review into thought.

Principal Gerry Born is the best principal ever! Very attentive and very engaging with both teachers, students and parents. The teachers are spectacular! They really care about educating the children. They make sure they make it a fun environment, so the children feel at ease. Making it easier for them to learn new information. This school seems very advanced and up to date with their teachings and their technology. Since attending this school, I've noticed my child is a bit more advanced on the academic side compared to her other peers that go to regular in person public schools. Nothing against public schools, this school just works out for us as a family. This school uses real life scenarios in their quarterly projects. For example, they need to research about their dream vacation and how much it cost in real time and create a budget, etc. Surprisingly, as parents, after realizing her dream vacation was definitely more doable budget wise, we were able to actually take her on that dream vacation in less than a year's time. It not only teaches the students, but every assignment and project teaches us as parents as well. We highly recommend this charter school.

As my child finishes his last year at Shenker, I thought it was only appropriate to leave a review…read more Moving to Vegas has been challenging in so many areas. Whether it has to do with education or healthcare (both of which were significantly better in Orange County). I enrolled my child at Shenker after talking to all the parents I would meet at the park in my neighborhood who would sing the school's praises. I am happy to say, Shenker lived up to my expectations. My child does not speak English as his primary language, and I was worried about how that would affect him. Also if I might add, I would get unsolicited comments from other educators concerning my refusal to speak English to my child at home. I am an educator ( I have a Masters in education and another Masters in school counseling) and I knew he would pick up English just as I did. Upon meeting with Dr. Sharon, he agreed with my approach concerning my son learning two languages, and put me at ease. My son has greatly improved academically and socially at Shenker. He is so happy to go to school, and everyone in the front office knows his name, as they do with ALL the students that attend their school. Dr. Sharon has truly been a joy to work with, and I see how much he cares for his staff and for his students at school. He knows every student's name and he works with every family to accommodate their needs. I honestly believe this school's success comes from the top down. I want to thank Shenker and Dr. Sharon for giving me peace of mind in the most important aspect of my life; my child's safety and education. Yours truly, Samvel's mom.

My daughter is 8, dx ASD, Dyspraxia with possible ID. She also struggles with hypotonia and hyper mobility. Life definitely is not easy for her, HOWEVER Nick (OT) and Vicki (ST) are making things more manageable and easier for her. Mr. Nick is powered by Starbucks and love for what he does. It shows every single therapy session as he switches things up, engages and encourages my child all the while motivating her to do more. As my 8 year old has told me many times "Mr. Nick is so cool and awesome!" lol. I think she would do OT every day with Mr. Nick if she could! In 6 months, my child has made HUGE noticeable progress. And best of all, SHE notices it. Us special needs parents know the overwhelming feeling of watching your child struggle, yet not knowing how to help. Now my daughter can do things she couldn't or wouldn't before and she beams with pride each time she does. Confidence in herself and trust in her body and judgement is a priceless gift. Ms. Vicki is knowledgeable, kind and willing to work with your child in whatever way will benefit. She is open to suggestions, encouraging and full of praise for every single victory, big or small. At my daughter's eval my child was using 2-3 word phrases, now she is up to 5-6. This is in only 3-4 months time. And the speech sessions are full of activities including words, talking etc. obviously, but have also included physical activity and just general fun. Again, whatever it takes to engage the child is how she operates. As a side note, we are self paying for these services. Everything is out of pocket. The prices are the least expensive I have found. It's astonishing to me, because at the level of therapy provided, the therapists could definitely be charging more. And we pay for an hour session. This is a FULL 60 minutes of therapy. It's not 45 or 50 of therapy and then 10 of paperwork. The therapists are not leaving our house until the full hour of therapy is done. They will answer questions, give suggestions or take recommendations during therapy, but at no time does the child's therapy suffer. This is one of the best decisions we have made for our daughter and I am so thankful for Mr. Nick and Ms. Vicki!

My middle school-age daughter really enjoyed going, and we loved the small class sizes. She went her entire 6th-grade year with no issues. I was the President of the PTO and spent hours of my own time and hundreds of dollars to support the school. This year, she had a few minor issues related to her autism and tic disorder come up that were completely blown out of proportion, and within a month she ended up being kicked out. She was not a bully and not violent. They did very little to work with her, and when we requested supports and accommodations they were refused. We have a pending discrimination case open with the state of Nevada and will be filing a complaint with the Nevada Department of Education. We are devastated with how this was handled. Though they claim to provide a supportive and inclusive environment for all students, this was not the case with us and it has happened to other families as well. Be wary of this school!

After a few weeks, his teacher raised a minor behavioral concern, which I addressed immediately. Throughout, the staff reassured me he was improving.

I was not able, at that time, to respond, as I was simply trying to survive. If I were in the position I am today, I would have pursued legal action. I now share this to caution other parents: this school's policies and ethics do not prioritize the best interests of their students and can cause real harm.

It is hard to get her to leave. She is treated with kindness, love, respect, and dignity. I highly recommend taking your child of any age here for Speech,Occupational, or Feeding Therapies.
