This school is remarkable! We went to three schools and watched our son struggle at each one. We have never met a team of professionals who have worked harder to make our son succeed. This school matters--from the top down. I have never met a more dedicated principal.
Havern is one of those truly special schools that combines professional excellence with a caring and supportive environment. I chose Havern after looking at 10 LD schools in four states (my family relocated from Egypt to place our son in a LD school). Havern educates the whole child--speech, occupational and social skills therapy is included and integrated into the curriculum! No more piece-meal therapy and running around with a tired child after school to one therapy/tutoring appointment after another! Since attending Havern, my son is thriving. His reading has just gone through the roof and I have never seen him happier or more confident. Havern is a life changing institution that has made our future so much brighter.
Here is an excerpt from my parents' response to my son's progress report: 'We are very impressed and pleased by the good report on (our grandson) from his school. He is doing good work and we know that Havern has provided just the right environment for his growth. Please tell him to keep up the good work and that his grandparents are proud of him. I've never read a more thorough report on a student. The counselor or evaluator did not overlook one facet of our grandson s progress. Every penny being spent on his development is being rewarded in real life. Thank you for sending the evaluation to us. It is comforting to know that our grandson is engaged in such a program and such a helpful social and educational environment.
Havern has been terrific for our daughter. The class size is small, so children with learning disabilities are able to get the individualized attention that they need. The school also integrates speech therapy, occupational therapy, art, music and drama (including an annual school play).
