I am a parent and find the treatment and care received is very well done. My daughter has severe disabilities, and the staff does a great job ensuring her care and growth working well with us. I feel she is safe and know Mrs Wanger gives 100% to all her students. Parents can do more to help the cause.

I'm a parent of a child that attends this school, although they do have a few good staff my child has definitely regressed since their placement here. The whole Lansing School District special Education Department has some employees that go rogue and do what they want whether it's lawful or not, or whether it's in the best interest of your child or not.
