My now 5 yo son was struggling with things since he was 2 with hitting, biting, severe meltdowns,…read moreanxiety, focus, impulsivity among other things. We had been kicked out of 2 schools and working on our 3rd. We had been hearing about brain balance for awhile and decided it was time to check it out. From the very beginning we felt so much hope and encouragement. We were welcomed with open arms and felt like this was exactly where we needed to be... mainly we felt like we were surrounded by a community of friends who were there with you to connect and talk and encourage each other through struggles..in saying all of this the best part of brain balance is that we have seen so much emotional breakthrough in our sons life. He is also developed so much physical strength and balance and now is way more confident riding his bike and playing sports and doing much better in school and at home. He is a different child and now we have a foundation to build and continue to grow on. We have also come away with lifelong friends who have become more like family. We will never be able to thank all the coaches and staff enough for all their hard work and commitment to these kids and the families

The only one I don't hear gossiping about our kids or their teachers is Rebecca and she is new. This is not how you handle a business! Too many kids and not enough teachers.

They just let them play all day with teachers half looking and on their phones.

My name is Stuart Adamson and I'm an NCS alum class of 2010…read more First of all, the biggest contributing factor towards my distaste for NCS stems from the segregation of "Those with learning disabilities " and "Those without". Depending on who you were outcomes for the same scenario would be completely different. For example, if you had a learning disability and you were late to class because you were talking to a teacher from your previous class about something your outcome would've been that you would've gotten some form of punishment because, in my opinion, you were expected to know not to be late even though you had a legitimate reason for being late. On the other hand, if it was the same scenario for a student that didn't have a learning disability the outcome would've been you had a legitimate reason and just a slap on the wrist. Secondly, I can still remember freshman year and being so excited to be in the art class elective and for a split second feeling like one of the normal students instead of feeling like a lab rat in the special education herd. That was until some teacher, I can't remember who, came and got me and was like "You're supposed to be in this class!" like a prisoner who escaped and got caught. In my mind I was like "Well they didn't f***ing tell me that!". In my opinion the life skills class should be strictly for low functioning students not for students who are slow learners.Although I wasn't the least bit happy about being in the class I had to continue to attend the class even though I'm pretty sure that "Non verbal learning disorder" doesn't mean I'm not smart enough to do daily tasks. Lastly, if there's one teacher you need to avoid at all costs it's Ms. Bartlett. Senior year you're already under a great deal of stress to make sure you graduate. My senior year was her first year of teaching. I firmly believe that she took a job at her old high school as a way to get in easy. Now by this time we all had senioritis, which is when you're so close to graduation you just want to get that dang diploma and get the hell out of dodge. The way I remember it was that we could partner up to study for this exam - so we did. The next day going about our day one of the announcements on the monitors around the high school said for these students, me included, to go to the principals office. Oh the bucket of gravel I felt in my stomach. I had never been in a situation like that before so I was really nervous. 3 or 4 of us stood in front of 3 teachers to plead our case but I don't think they would've cared to take our side of the story. Punishment was early morning detention for several days. On top of that they gave us a zero for the grade on that exam. Then it was bumped up to a 75, which is still an F, but it was too little too late.
