Life After Lewis
“One of the greatest things I learned from Lewis is that if I worked hard enough, I could do anything. I am so grateful to The Lewis School and credit everything I’ve been able to accomplish to my years there.”

“Realize the value of work ethic; you might not be the best, but you can still achieve at a high level even in areas that you perceive as your weaknesses. That is something that Lewis taught me and it’s definitely something other children will get from their experiences at Lewis.”

“When I came to Lewis I couldn’t read at all. I remember doing a lot of short vowel fill-in drills, and learning blends and the different spelling rules. The intense work with phonics is one of the greatest gifts The Lewis School gave me that I just couldn’t get anywhere else. And what’s even better, is that a lot of that stuff still sticks with me today.”
