What our families say

Stories of growth, confidence, and support

As the father of a child with autism, I can say that the care and dedication the teachers and staff give their students is immeasurable. I see it in how eagerly my son looks forward to school each day and in the progress he has made over the years.

Jose M.

Every child needs just one person who believes in them. At Gersh, the whole team believes. They find that spark through positive reinforcement, and the child gains confidence.

Brit A.

Our daughter did not want to go to school before Gersh. In the first few months she developed a lovely trust with the staff and was very willing to attend. We feel fortunate to have found a safe, warm, and welcoming environment.

Jane R.

At Gersh we feel like family, like home. We know our son is comfortable; it is a very enriching place. Academically he is flourishing, and socially he is much more outgoing.

Anthony M.

The teachers are excellent; they personalize lessons according to each student’s strengths. There is nothing better than seeing the excitement, smiles, creativity, and teamwork.

Donna B.

They are the best. I cannot imagine my son attending another school. Thank you for everything.
