I went to Miss Porter's School
- My experience at Miss Porter's School was fantastic. I felt very well prepared for college. The faculty was excellent and gave us the freedom to truly discover ourselves. The atmosphere was very tolerant. It is a wonderful school.

I went to Milton Academy
- My experience was terrible. The administration is biased and will go very far (sic) their numerous scandals. A black girl was expelled for a panty raid. A white boy used racial slurs, but didn't even get a scratch on his record. This goes along with at least 10 other cases including the expulsion of a Hispanic student. I was also a victim of this unfairness.

PEA Alumni
- I attended Exeter from 1998-2002 on scholarship. I did not, or rather, could not comprehend the blessing bestowed upon me by attending Exeter until fairly recently. Exeter is a wonderful school. But what really makes it special is the exposure a student like me can get at a school like Exeter. Before attending Exeter, I had no idea of what was inside of me. Exeter taught me that not only was I an extraordinary bright person, but also destined to do great things for this world. "Non Sibi" all the way!!!

Kudos for Denver Academy
- We were lucky to live in a state with a great school for students with learning differences--Denver Academy. It provides small class size, individualized education and positive instruction to students everyday. It is the best LD school west of the Mississippi!

Schools for Learning Disabilities
- Some "Special" LD schools are GREAT and some are AWFUL!! My son has been to 3 LD schools in the area. ______ was (is) a HORRIBLE experience. The other extreme is TRIAD ACADEMY!! It is BY FAR the VERY BEST!! My son (now 18 yrs old) has finally experienced teachers and staff who TRULY understand learning differences.
