Posted May 27, 2009

My grandaughter is a kindergarten student this year at Brickett School. At the beginning of the year she was struggling with completing her work. Today she if doing exceptionally well. I have to give credit to not only her family for taking time with her but for the great teachers she has, Mrs. Barry and Mrs. Gagnon. They are very patient and thoughtful when it comes to their class. I have found the Brickett School very kind and considerate to all children.
