This school in particlular has teach me a lot since I entered and for the teachers they are great.The teachers there are not only to teach what they know and what they have to;but, there are there to support when students need them,when they are having trouble in certain subject and even on personal problems.This is one of the great characteristics that the school have,which help students built their trust and frienship on teachers.

My son has been attending for a few years and really loves it. The classroom sizes are about 15-20 and the teachers are so sweet.

Lafayette school is not an appropriate place for children who need special education.He has no partnership with his parents, he doesn't respect his parents, especially if he is an immigrant.If your child needs Special Education, do not put it in this school, it is not appropriate for this student.

The teachers who taught my son are extremely good in the sense that they do not leave my child with doubts about anything and they are very clear in explaining.
