“All staff is highly trained to handle situations that may arise in the classroom setting. We like the low teacher/student ratio and how the students are able to work at their own pace and excel where they are gifted. Our son is free to be who he is at Y.A.L.E. He does not feel judged. He has matured so much and has come so far!” – Judy D.
