I taught at Blach School for 15 years of my 40 years as an educator. Blach School is far-and-away the best school that I have had any contact with, whether as a student, parent, reviewer, or professional educator. I worked at Blach School as a special day class teacher, serving special needs students who required three or more periods of special education per day. My students were also mainstreamed for two or more periods per day. Even though this is a very high-achieving school, the teachers were flexible in working with students who needed modifications to the curriculum and course requirements. I was at first surprised, but then I came to expect the prevailing atmosphere of acceptance and support in all areas of the curriculum and extra-curricular activities. At the student level, there was also an atmosphere of acceptance, encouragement, and kindness that flowed from the general education students. Some of them even volunteered in my class! I would ALMOST be willing to go back to being a middle school student if I could attend Blach School.

My son is thriving in this school. He has become much more aware of what he needs to do and has become very independent. His grades are excellent and his teachers are very in tune with where there kids are and what help they need. Excellent School!!
