Pros

Giant Steps is a wonderful environment for students with autism and I enjoyed seeing the kids and teachers every day. Each student is given an individual plan that allows them to succeed at their pace achieving their own goals.

Cons

To use the word 'shady' is an understatement. From what I understand, the President and CEO has 'resigned' recently due using Giant Steps finances as her own personal ATM. To take thousands of dollars for her own personal use is unforgivable! Shame on the board for not asking the right questions, for not paying attention and for allowing this to go on for years!

Pros

The staff are highly dedicated to each student's education and excel at keeping both students and staff safe. They also maintain excellent communication with families.

Cons

The higher-ups often interfere unnecessarily, taking over responsibilities instead of allowing department leaders to take the lead, and they lack the ability to guide others to success—opting instead to control everything. They also mismanage finances, frequently asking for more money, and have a habit of taking credit for others' ideas without giving proper recognition.
