She said" YEAH BUT I NEED TO KNOW THE REASON! Again I said he Isn't not feeling well, then she says "OK BYE! And slams the phone on me. I go to the school and ask to speak to the Principal and Silvia says Why? I said I just called trying to excuse my son's absence and someone just slammed the phone on me, was it you? She says yeah!

So I asked he for her name she wrote it down on a piece of paper and I walked away. And here we are. I get home only to be told that the school teacher called asking why Andrew was absent. So she never even took me seriously. Very disrespectful. The power trip and way of dealing with parents coming out of this lady is wrong and sad.

Can't say enough good things about Altus! My son has struggled his entire life in public schools…read more We even tried helping him with an IEP and still the experience was horrible, stressful and felt like we were just a number. After many years of considering a more independent study, we made the decision to enroll my son in Altus. His demeanor, his work ethic, confidence, and overall attitude changed drastically. I wish we would've made the change sooner by glad he will finish off high school here. The staff is so friendly and helpful they make my son and parents feel welcomed.
