Kimberly Nelson: This is our second year at Pot Spring and we couldn't be happier. My son has been so fortunate to have had such caring and nurturing teachers for both kindergarten and first grade and continues to flourish with his overall learning and especially his reading. Both of my children, including my preschool age daughter, receive speech services through the school and we are so happy with the progress they have made since starting. I am pleased with the education program and am glad to see the children given opportunities to learn in different ways (ie - outdoor observing, nature walks, science experiments, etc.). There is a great sense of a love of learning in this school building and with so much parent involvement, the children of Pot Spring will surely succeed.

I believe that there needs to be more on-site testing thru the school for special needs children. Too many have fallen thru the cracks. Holding children back a grade because of the "too slow" logic with all of the teacher's backup is hog wash. Find out WHY the child is slow. This logic destroys the future of the child. What job is there for anyone who cannot read, write, or do even simple math?
