[quote=Anonymous]As a parent who sent their child to TNS for four years, here are my take aways. The problem with the Nora School is that though it takes in many students who are on the spectrum, or as others like to say "spectrum adjacent"/ ADHD, they are not equipped in programming or staff to take on the targeted instruction/teaching and interventions to meet students needs. Their staff is not qualified to take on such students. They are a small school for students who need extra support, but lack in structure and accountability. This in my opinion creates a false sense of security and accomplishment for students who pass no matter what. I only saw the impact of this when my son graduated and went on to college. He had no tangible skills, and needed even more support in college than in high school. It is a grave regret that I continued to send my child here. Out of the class of 18 that my son graduated, 6 did not make it through the first year of college, and 6 did not graduate. How can you justify 132k dollars for such results? Point being, that TNS will get your child to college, but will they thrive once they are there?[/quote]
