    "This has been an interesting year. My oldest daughter has had a lot of challenges due to a seizure disorder and I am happy to say that Tuscano has risen to the challenge. I feel very fortunate to have my children attend a school that employs such awesome teachers and support staff. I know that my daughter will be safe at Tuscano. My younger daughter is thriving in Kindergarten and I could not be happier with her teacher, who was my oldest daughters Kinder teacher as well. Tuscano is a good school that is luck enough to have a great group of people working there. Both of my children have the best teachers in the school, I am very lucky to have found Tuscano as it is not the school geographically that they should attend. Thank you Tuscano, for taking care of my babies."

    "I am a social worker that works closely with Mr. Winther in the special education department at Tuscano and I could not agree more with the mother in the previous review. Mr. Winther has went above and beyond to ensure that my clients thrive and learn in school. I am just in awe over how he can instill integrity and growth in academics as fast as he does. My clients are excited to go to school and learn. I have asked Mr. Winther to attend child study hearings and court placements and he has attended all of these meetings without hestitation. The principals have always been involved in the IEP's and have found ways to assist their teachers with specific needs in dealing with the special needs students. If you are looking for a school that is going to make a difference in your child's life, this school is it!"

    "I have been involved with the special education staff at this school for the past three years. I am a state employee that is in charge of several foster students in this school. I have had several of my clients in the special educational classrooms and this school, mainly in Mr. Winther's room. I can not begin to tell you what a dramatic difference this young man has made in their lives. I have seen my clients become excited about attending school and wanting to go on a daily basis. Mr. Winther has also went above and beyond be ensure my clients are successful. He has attended court hearings, child/parent meetings, and proposed effective IEP meetings that benefited the educational performance of my clients. If you have a special needs student, this school is the place for them! Thank you for all you do for my clients!!"

    "I spent five years scared and dreading sending my oldest child to school. I had heard good things about Tuscano, the teachers and the administration and I thought I would check into it. We currently live in the Western Valley Elem. area but I drive my child 3 miles to Tuscano and we are very happy. I get emails every week from my child's teacher informing us of what they learned that week and pictures of the children doing different learning activities. Every morning I see at least one if not both the Principal and Vice Principal reminding parents to drive carefully, they watching our children enter the school. When I have emailed questions or concerns I have received responses right away. I feel like they are easy to communicate with."
