Alpha School Testimonials

“If I had to use one word to describe Alpha School, it would be LOVE. Our family has been beyond thrilled with every aspect of our son’s education at Alpha. Since he was placed in the school 2 years ago, his overall progress and happiness has been remarkable, and he has blossomed in this positive and nurturing environment. The staff at Alpha are some of the most wonderful, loving, and dedicated teachers and human beings I have ever met. They give their all, and never see “disability”, only possibilities. They provide the kids with a complete academic, cultural, physical and behavioral education, all while celebrating each child’s strengths and helping them to grow. Alpha school, you have far exceeded our expectations. Thank you for all you do for my child and all of his amazing peers.”

My grandchild started in the Alpha School when he was 3 years old. He could not eat, walk, talk. He wore a helmet and was a head banger and violent. He now reads greek mythology he loves science, he is well behaved and he is helpful. I know there are some things he will not be able to do but he is 17 1/2 years old now and he is the best he can for Dylan. It was all due to the physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, discipline and teaching by the staff who would not give up on a child. Who taught family and siblings about their disability and how to cope, deal and be consistent to set goals for the children which helped with behavior. The teachers and staff were never to busy to talk to you when you called about a problem. They were supportive and we worked together to solve the problems. The programs, shows, trips, summer programs and picnics are wonderful. I’ll miss them. But all of the staff at Alpha are the reason my grandson has progressed to the level he is at and he still has time to continue to learn and be all that he can be. We love him and we love the Alpha School, a place for children with disabilities, with staff, teachers, and therapist who are committed to helping not only the child but families too. Thank you for all you do.”

Our son started at Alpha School in an extremely delicate situation. The teachers, staff, and administration have been wonderful to our son and family. They work with tender loving hands. His need and best interests are always put first. They have worked patiently to reteach skills and through difficult behaviors. His improvement in the time he has been there is amazing! It is so important that your special needs child be in the appropriate program. We are so grateful that our son is now at the Alpha School! Our thanks goes beyond words!

Rob and I cannot thank you enough for your tireless commitment and dedication to Brooke. Over the years, Brooke has been in several school programs where individuals went through the motions but did not teach from the heart. This was very discouraging to us, which is why we did not give up the fight to find a better “home” for Brooke; a home filled with professionals that believe in Brooke and will challenge her to reach her potential. Today’s holiday show was proof to us that Brooke has found her home away from home. The show left us speechless and her outfit was breathtaking! Thank you all for giving Rob and me the best holiday gift ever.. . the comfort of knowing that Brooke is well taken care of every day. Have a wonderful holiday season!

With gratitude, Lori & Rob

Our daughter, Bridget, has attended the Alpha School for 12 years. Initially, we were nervous about sending her to a full day program that was so far from home. But we soon realized that the Alpha School was the best place for Bridget. Not only does the staff provide educational and therapy programs for her, they also provide a great deal of emotional support for us. Whenever my husband and I go to the Alpha School, we know that we are not alone; there is always someone to give us the support and compassion we need. The staff is constantly teaching us how to work with our child to make her the best that she can be. They also put a lot of time and effort into thinking of new and fun things to do with the children, which I think is just as important. It is very comforting for us to know that Bridget will be in this loving and dedicated environment until she is 21.
