Love Bella Mente!! The teachers and staff care so much for my daughter and all their students. My daughter is so environmentally conscious. The school has definitely taught her how important community is. Her teachers know how to cultivate her creativity. They have been amazing with her social anxiety. They have a small group of kids that she gets together with to work on social skills and other tricks that have really helped her come out of her shell. I could go on and on but basically, I love this school (:
