Astounding Progress

Dear Ms. Perlman,

Patrice and I wanted to thank you and the staff at Kells for the wonderful experience that Lily Jade had this past year. As you know, we were suddenly thrown into this decision the week before school, following a delayed diagnosis.

Although the first few months were quite difficult, as Lily Jade did not want to switch schools, she slowly grew to love Kells. She recently told me that, as opposed to her old school where all they did was "work, work, work", that at Kells, she just has fun all day long.

Her progress has been astounding: from reading, to math, to social skills, to self-confidence. Even our home life has seen a tremendous change: she used to come home from school completely exhausted from trying so hard to keep up, and would melt down the moment she stepped in our front door. Now, we have the absolute pleasure of seeing her smile, both going to and leaving school. She is a much happier child.

We specifically want to make a point of mentioning Lily Jade's teacher, Ms. Mazzamauro. Patrice and I were so impressed with her over the year: her enthusiasm, her energy, her kindness, her wonderful way of interacting with her students. Lily Jade absolutely adores her teacher, and so do we.

Have a wonderful summer -

Kind regards,

Kira and Patrice
