Parents writing about their 8th grader

Although our son was getting good grades in school, we knew that he was struggling in reading, comprehension, and writing. We could tell that he was getting more and more frustrated and would call himself "stupid". Now that our son has nearly completed his academic plan at Huntington, we have seen improvements in many areas. First, his reading fluency and vocabulary has definitely moved up in grade level which has helped with comprehension. Most importantly, he has become more confident. He told us: "I like it at Huntington because everyone knows me and they push me to do better".
