The staff are caring, supportive, and truly understand the needs of autistic students like my son. The facilities are top-notch, and the wellbeing programs have been a game-changer for him. *(Feb 2023)*
- **3/5** — Mixed Feelings: My son's experience at Lighthouse School has been a bit of a mixed bag. On the one hand, he's made some wonderful friends and the staff are always supportive. On the other hand, he's struggled with some of the coursework and I've had to chase progress reports at times. Overall, I'd say it's been an okay experience, but not without its challenges. *(Dec 2022)*

The school's values of compassion, optimism, and individuality truly shone through in the way they treated her. She's now thriving in her career, and I credit Lighthouse School for helping her get there. *(Sep 2022)*
