Since my son transitioned to Athos he has thrived. The special education department has been a great addition to his village. They push and challenge him to be the best he can be. They do not see his disability they see him!

I like that the staff really know the students, and it feels like a family. As you walk through the halls, the students are greeted by name and with a hug.
