"Four Winds is innovative in its attention to each individual, and it is traditional in the quality and rigor of the education. It is the best of both worlds."
           ~Ellen Rainville, mother of David, graduate, spring 2008


"Traditional school boxes people in. And guess what? People don't grow in a box. Four Winds allows students to be who they are. And when you're in junior high, that's probably one of the most important things you need."
          ~David Rainville, graduate, spring 2008


"I began a math avoider, shifted to a math survivor, became a math performer, and passed GCC college math class in my eighth grade summer."
          ~Sam Ness, graduate, spring 2002


"This is the first year Lucas has ever gotten up and wanted to go to school. This is a huge thing for us."
          ~Ed Streeter-Gelineau, father of Lucas, graduate, spring 2004


"Four Winds isn't a school for exceptional children. It is an exceptional school for children. Byron, Hud, and I couldn't be happier with our experience at Four Winds."
          ~Lili Dwight and Byron Coley
