the fall of 2021 is a few months away. we are a breakthrough family and have been for years. we are extremely happy. the guides are amazing and Allison is the special ed coordinator/guide. they really do a good job. it’s a lovely community with play dates, potlucks, fun performances. we just started up the play dates. the SHA are the parent org and it’s well run. I can’t speak to the other two.

our DD is heading to in person right after break. Breakthrough has been very open about reopening. they put a priority on getting the staff vaccinated and listening to parents. good luck!

We’re looking for a school where we can start at Pk4 and stay through grade 5 or 6. Sadly we didn’t get matched at our preferred choices. What are your opinions about Haynes? Established? Disappointing?

I would take EL Haynes if the commute worked - wonderful school and community.

We went sela and it’s an awesome school. We left bc we moved. It’s a very warm and inviting environment. The administration is top notch and extremely responsive to parents. I think you will be happy there!
