Testimonials
Three years ago, my son enrolled at Bacot Academy. The public schools failed to provide a healthy learning environment. Since then, my son’s behavior has changed dramatically. My son’s grades have improved and he has learned to be responsible. I have great hopes in his future.
My name is Nick Bacot and I am the reason my mom started Bacot Academy. When I was little I changed schools a lot. I never really fit in and sometimes people would make fun of me. I don’t have to worry about that anymore because here we are all almost the same and never treated bad. We get to take lots of field trips to fun places and I love my teacher. Me and my mom has gotten lots of attention. Sometimes I feel like a celebrity.
We as parents of a six year old son whom has autism, are extremely happy with Bacot Academy. The classroom ratio of teacher to student gives our son and the other students the individual education plan that works best for them. He receives the therapies he needs at school. His teacher has been great with him and with her help. We have seen him communicate more than he ever has. All of the staff makes us feel comfortable and it feels like coming into a family. We hope for continued expansion and success for Bacot Academy. Our appreciation and thankfulness goes out to Bacot Academy’s staff and associated therapist.
