Teresa Perez: My son is in third grade and transfered from Markham this year. I was so scared for him but the teacher was very nice and the school was very welcoming. My son seems much happier and very excited to learn. He has made big improvements since the start of the school year and it's only the end of september!
Thanks Cambridge
