My son David flourished in his first year at Lexis Prep. Once a shy child who would often sit on the sidelines as he watched the other kids play games and sports, at Lexis Prep. David developed a new self confidence and he enjoyed getting involved in sports. David grew in other ways as well. He interacted with his peers and participated in class more than in previous years. His teachers were nurturing and encouraging, which made him feel comfortable and special.
