De'Andre says he, “used to do crazy things like get mad and yell at my teachers and classmates. Sometimes, I would get really mad and try to hurt other people. I've gotten a lot of help with controlling myself. Now I get to go on a tour and see a new school where I will have more opportunities. It's been hard work, but my family and my teachers never gave up on me." Learn more about De'Andre and his progress below: Learn more about our school today.

Cheyenne is a very independent student; she likes to complete her work all by herself. Cheyenne had a hard time asking for help or accepting help if an assignment was incorrect, but she is now doing better in that area. Cheyenne also works at the coffee cart, and we are very happy with her customer service. She is very nice to everyone and helpful with the orders. Learn more about our school today.
