We love Getz school and we are really happy we decided to send our daughter there. She is getting her therapies and learning routines and that is helping at home as well. We love her teacher, Ms. Kendra and can tell she really cares about the students. The community is definitely improving after covid and activities are coming back to the school. We are excited to be involved at the school and hope to help make changes for the good and the future of the school. We would definitely recommend Getz school to anyone who has a child with a disability specifically, but also to kids without disabilities. Inclusion is great and we are thankful our daughter is in class with kids with all abilities!

My son has attended Getz for two years and it has been an amazing journey!. My son has grown in all areas of his development and went from a silent shy boy to a talkative social youngster! Getz was a wonderful experience for both of us. The teachers, therapist, and staff have been a huge blessing for our family.

This is my son's 2nd and final year as a peer at Getz before he heads off to kindergarten next year. I can't say enough about the change I have seen in him. I originally had wanted him to attend Getz to be exposed to children who were different than him, children with different abilities. Not only has seeing children in wheelchairs or with different non-visible disabilities been part of his normal day, they are just regular classmates and normal friends to him (none of those embarrassing questions in public about what happened to someone) he has learned so much from his teacher! He wasn't even able to recognize his ABCs when he started Getz, and now does he not only know his alphabet, he is now able to write his name :-) I even caught him counting to 100 on his own, for fun!? All of the staff members know every student by name and have really created a wonderful community for these young learners to thrive! I am confident my son will excel in kindergarten because of his experience at Getz :-)

I love Getz School. It is by far the best place that my daughter could have been to. Shes attended now for one semester and it has been a blessing. They have such great programs. The staff and teachers, even the maintenance staff are always so super friendly, patient and caring. It is obvious that they enjoy children and the envirement they work in. Theyve always gone way beyond my expectations. Her teacher and Speach Therapist are Awsome! I have seen such an improvement in her, her ability to speak to me and the great accomplishments in her Speech and Language impairment, also in her learning as they have a great preschool education curriculum thats far beyond the normal, the parent teacher communication is excellent, her social skills, her attention span, and her self worth, I can tell she feels more confident in herself now. Shes excited everyday for school, This is the best establishment in all general terms that I have seen, and i am so thankfull we came across it. We are moving mid-semester this week, I am so very sad to leave it. I know we will not come across another school like this again. -Toni Hamilton
