"Some Hiccups But Overall Good"

We have been pleased with The Windmill School overall, but we have experienced some issues with communication from the staff. The facilities are great and the staff are generally very supportive, but we feel that more could be done to involve parents in the decision-making process.

"A Home for Our Son"

We were so nervous about placing our son at The Windmill School, but from the moment we walked through the doors, we knew we had made the right decision. The facilities are amazing and the staff are so supportive and understanding. The way the school values individuality and promotes independence is truly inspiring.
