Our first day at St. Augustine's many years ago, Alex had a hard time. The whole classroom setting was a huge adjustment for him. I remember observing him and wondering if we had made a mistake. Alex continued to have struggles through his high school years but was thriving in many areas thanks to St. A's. He never struggled with the content. He loved what he was learning and could discuss the most complex topics from Logic to Philosophy. Alex was blessed through his St. A. years with fabulous tutors who cultivated his strengths and a group of the best kids anywhere as friends.
Today he graduated. We are very proud of Alex.
