“When Luis first started at The Scranton School he was not able to do many things for himself. The teachers have been so patient, teaching him to communicate and important life skills. I cannot express my gratitude for all the staff has done. They have been there in every way. Supporting him through a part time job and working on improving his diet and exercising. The Scranton School not only helps him in the classroom but they genuinely care about his overall well-being. Luis and I are very blessed to be part of The Scranton School family!” - Julie, Luis’ mom
