My son was traumatized for years from this place. He compared it to Alcatraz and said the staff…read morelock you up in a room that give you splinters. He is so relieved to be at a different school now. It was also very clear the staff had A strong dislike for my son. They actually said they dnt think there's anything they can do to help him. I found out in our iep meeting that they weren't even giving him chance to be in the classroom everyday they would just escort him to a room where no work was done. He was disciplined essentially every morning right at the door without a fresh start opportunity to join the class. I would recommend my son says his current school has transfers from Olive Crest who share a similar experience and are so traumatized they cannot complete work in the classroom or at all. This place should be shut down.

I was on the waitlist and when the time came it is a big packet but in all honesty I feel that the more they ask the safer my son will be. My son started at 18 mths and I was very nervous because I was not sure how he was going to be treated. However, it is so nice and relieving to see how they ALL are with him. I went to so many schools and I did not like them but here I am so grateful! I highly recommend this school and care facility. Have another baby coming and when that time comes I hope I will be able to put my baby there when needed. They also do very cute things when holidays come around. Thankful for this school and for the treatment and welcoming of our family.

My 9-year-old son suffered from encephalitis and Guillain-Barre Syndrome. We had a difficult time…read morefinding a learning center in Las Vegas, NV to meet his needs. I'm a PICU nurse and college nursing instructor, so I understood what he needed to help with his recovery. He needed help on multiple levels including his primitive reflexes, reading, spelling, focus, core strength, auditory and visual processing, and tools to cope with his emotions. Stowell Learning Center was recommended to us by my son's audiologist, Dr. Pamela Best. There is not one doctor in Las Vegas who tests for auditory processing disorder. We have only been with Stowell Learning Center for almost a month. We travel there once a month, but we predominately complete his treatments at home and consult with a representative from the center once a week. My husband and I have seen big changes. My son was going to the nurse's office 3 to 4 times a week prior to visiting the center for his anxiety and fatigue. He was sucking on things and chewing paper. He has not been to the nurse's office since the New Year! He is more focused in school and with homework. He is emotionally more stable and can reason better. The treatment is time consuming on the parent, but it is worth it. The representatives at the learning center have been patient and flexible with me. I have even received tips on helping my son get more organized. I can't give enough positive words to the staff at Stowell Learning Center. I highly recommend this place, especially if your child has suffered from a head injury or has ADHD. My son was diagnosed with ADHD post the head injury. He is not on medications right now, and I hope to keep it that way. Liz is AMAZING at the center. She is extremely knowlesgable and will get to the root of the problem with learning problems (and more!).

This is a beautiful place filled with a wonderful staff. It is located perfectly in the heart of Claremont. They have a gorgeous swimming pool that is for children and physical therapy for adults. George and Frank are the lifeguards that observe the children. They are in great hands. Children, teens, and adults are divided into four groups. This facility is not a school but a learning center. The employees are not teachers, but helpers/aid. They communicate and converse with children-adults (2-6pm) and report to their parents after session. They talk about progress, Group D- (Infants-Toddlers) Employees who are in charge (Doris, Francella) I have to say that they are the back bone of the community. This group is so important because they teach the children at a young age, life skills and behavioral lessons . A very difficult job, but they do it with ease. Doris is a highly trained employee who has worked here 30+ years. All the children and adults respect her. She is the tank of the operation. Francella has also worked here for 2-3 years and the children couldn't be in better hands. The children need a mix of a big sister/mother figure. She gives attention to every child and unconditional love. She can also be very strict and knows when to stop children from playing. Group C (Toddlers-Teens) Employees (Carol, Gabby) This group is just as intense as Group C. They do as much as Group D. They provide the children/teens life lessons and teach them behavioral manners. The teenagers are at their beginning of maturation and it can get difficult at some times, but the employees both manage to keep their composure and teach on. Re edit soon-

You did an amazing job, and it's clear how intelligent and experienced you are, not to mention your passion for fighting for the families you help. I sincerely hope you mentor young professionals because we need more advocates like you in this space. Thank you again for helping us navigate this new and challenging chapter for Noah.
