Thank you so much for the help you have given our son this year. It’s made all the difference in the fundamentals that he needed (and we needed in order to help him). We received a voicemail from our son’s teacher regarding his progress in school. She reported that she had just completed his 3rd 9 week reading assessment… at the beginning of the year he was a level 3, in the last assessment he was a level 4, in this one… he was a level 14!!! This is just a tad above benchmark and well on the way to the Level 16 he needs by the end of the year. She also reported that he is really enjoying school and they are all so proud of him.
