Cherokee is a wonderful school. My oldest child is autistic and he joined Cherokee in the middle of his 5th grade year. This was the only school (of many) to listen to my concerns and retain him like I had been requesting since he was in 1st grade. In that extra year, he grew immensely. I couldn't have been more thankful for the teachers and principle who listened to me and helped him grow that year and got him much more ready for middle school than he would've been the previous year. The staff is amazing and truly do love those kids.

After calling to the State Board of Education my son got the help he needed - which wasn't much. If you a...
