My grandson is a special needs student at Dona Merced. This is the fourth school he's been in during the past five years, and the first one where he is truly doing well. The teachers are amazing - both adjusting to his needs and holding him to high standards. As 37-year veteran educator myself, I've done a lot of staff development and teacher observations/mentoring. This school has some of the best teaching I've seen.
