Brooke Nickman: We love Will Rogers Learning Community. We took our daughter out of her private school to go to this wonderful school. She started in 2nd grade and was nourished in every way. The teachers devoted themselves to her as well to the other students. The community is extremely kind and loving. It is a treasure of a place. Everyone is appreciated for their personal gifts. I only wish I had sent my other children to this school. My daughter loves learning. She feels comfortable with her learning level and is motivated by her teachers to do well. I was inspired to write this because to my dismay I read a very critical review about WRLC. I completely disagree! Go see and visit this school. Your heart will lead you to the right place. It has been a blessing to our family.
