(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - This school has been wonderful to my child. She has been ill with cancer and other problems and all staff and all students have taken her in and really loved her. They all know how to take care of her and the nurse Mrs. Willard has been awesome with her also. She knows how to care for her needs. She gives her, her daily medications and taken awesome care of her. I have a very close friends with all of her teachers. The other thing that makes edison has a teacher who has the same issue as Gracey being that she has lost her eye to an illness also. she has really connected with Gracey. Gracey has spoken of her highly and it is some what of a comfort for Gracey. I hope that Gracey gets to stay with Edison. She will would not handle it well. She has a comfort there and that is a big deal when you have such a noticable handicap as she does. I don't feel she would be loved as much as she is there anywhere else. Thank you so Much, Mandy Deluna
