We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

The teacher and staff in the functional skills class care about each student and their individual needs. They are amazing with the students and treat them with the utmost love and respect. I am so glad that my child is in that classroom and would not want them any place else. I love Whitesides!!!!
