What Families Say

Students

Parents

EYC teachers are open and try to get to know each individual student they work with and how they can best accommodate their learning style.

– 8th grader

I feel like the teachers at EYC actually care for me instead of it just feeling like I'm just another kid handed off to them.

– Freshman

I transferred here because I'm able to work at my own pace and I’m able to get more help when I need it than I did in public school. It's like a family, they help me succeed and take care of me.

– Junior

Between the atmosphere and the teachers here, I feel listened to and cared for. I am able to work at my own pace and flourish.

– Senior

My family chose EYC because other schools had not accepted me or understood my challenges.

– Senior

You will like this school if you are someone who works at a different pace than other students, or if you learn more by having conversations with your teachers rather than lectures.

– Graduate

The teachers are amazing, and their interactions have enhanced my children’s growth, both personally and academically. Their learning platform really works.

– Parent of a freshman

We found EYC and were immediately put at ease by the staff and environment. It was clear EYC was invested in the mental and educational development of children in their care.

– Parent of a junior

Our daughter has been accepted at multiple colleges and universities. EYC has set her up for success and built on her strengths while overcoming her academic health challenges.

– Parent of a graduate

We remembered the first meeting with Lou Reuss, and we were desperate and emotional as parents and suddenly we had him in front of us saying – ‘I understand and let me take that burden off your shoulders’. That brief meeting impacted our family a lot. This is the major reason we selected EYC and today I confirm it was our best decision ever.

– Parent of a graduate

EYC was a godsend when we needed it most. Our daughter not only finished her high school requirements a semester early (with straight A's) but she rediscovered her love of learning. She got her voice back and we absolutely loved watching her grow at EYC.

– Parent of a graduate

Without EYC’s caring teachers and leadership, I don’t believe my children would be high school graduates. EYC changed our world.
