Graduation has truly been a miracle for me. In the beginning (of high school), I thought, will I be different than the others? Even though I had a learning disability, you were there to help me understand, that I’m as smart as me. I believe that without you none of this would be possible. -2022 graduate
Where do I even begin in my appreciation for Stacey? From day one she was an advocate for my daughter, she always had her best interest at heart and in the forefront. She was my ally and she wasn’t afraid of the fight when it came to helping my daughter get everything she needed! - AOP
Stacey was with us through several years of navigating IEPs. She was genuinely attentive and caring every step of the way, explaining the situation and all options. She made sure my daughter had the correct accommodations to ensure her success through high school and beyond. I could not have done it without her! -NN
