PARENT RESOURCES
PARENT TESTIMONIALS
"Morrison School has been an answered prayer. It is allowing us to give our son the education, both academically and socially that he would not be able to receive at other schools"
"Coming to Morrison was like taking a breath of fresh air. The struggles of having a child who has Autism, ADHD, and Sensory Processing Disorder were finally supported by a school that truly cares and wants to partner with your family to help your child succeed. The positive reinforcement system, level of training of the administration and staff, and genuine love for the students is the reason we moved from Knoxville to Bristol to permanently make a change that will forever impact our lives."
"Our sixth grader began Morrison School last summer and continued as a student this school year. This school has changed not only our daughter, but our family for the better. I only wish we had found Morrison School earlier!"
"Morrison School was not only a life changing experience for our son, but our family unit has also reaped the benefits. To see him be successful academically and socially, as well as to thrive in life, is a blessing to us. We are proud to be a part of the Morrison family."
"Morrison School is providing our child with an outstanding education. The educational and social learning aspects of Morrison's program allow our child to flourish and grow by addressing needs and developing talents. We appreciate the ways in which the faculty and staff encourage parental involvement in each component of our child's program. We are so grateful to have a school of this caliber in our region!"
STUDENT TESTIMONIALS
"I benefit by attending Morrison because it really helps me with my reading and math skills. I wasn't at the right levels for my age and grade. It was hard at first but once you learn how they teach at Morrison it makes learning much easier. The teachers are really nice. Morrison was a better fit for me than my other school because they started over and helped me progress to where I should be instead of getting left behind. My favorite things about Morrison are the teachers. Everyone is treated very fair at Morrison even though all students are different."
"I have enjoyed my time at Morrison School because of the many educational opportunities I have been given. I have had the chance to take classes well above my grade level, and this has helped me feel challenged academically at school instead of becoming bored."
"I like Morrison School because it changed my life. My old teachers were not really teaching me the best way I could learn so we looked at other schools. My teachers now have provided me with everything I need to learn and still have fun at the same time. Class time is the time to work and recess and lunch is the time to talk and play. Morrison School is great. The teachers are very strict but they deeply care about you and your future. Morrison has changed my life because school stressed me out before but now it doesn't. I thank the staff and teachers for that."
"This is my second year at The Morrison School and I can definitely see a change in how I work. When I first came to Morrison, I was behind in a couple of subjects. My teachers are working hard to help me catch up. I have become more organized, responsible and disciplined with my school work. Morrison has held me to higher standards than my previous schools which has made me want to apply myself more."
"Morrison School has been a good school for me. I love the friendly environment and the fact that there are no bullies. I also love the fact that you can buy out of Friday afternoons if you do all of your homework."
