I like the program very much. It is well organized. The Elevator’s are flexible and always communicate if they cannot be there. They cover for each other. KCE is lucky to have this program.

Lisa makes Mason feel that someone is there just for him. It calms him and refuels his spirit. He settles down after a cooling off period, and he's refreshed after spending time with Lisa. He is always so excited to see Lisa. He's up and out the door before I know what's happening sometimes! I think Lisa is like a mother figure to him, and as a twin - he always has to share. He doesn't have to share Lisa and that is something he needed. -Stephanie Elkins, Teacher
I have seen great social and emotional improvement in Jazya since Angela began her visits. Angela has learned how to connect with Jazya through her interests. This program is amazing! We are lucky to have it at KCE! -Kacie Atha, Teacher
Brooklin has had good grades and behavior all year long, but having Kristi come has helped her by having another person in her life that cares about her. It has given her some more confidence. Kristi even sent some presents to Brooklin during the pandemic. This experience has been very positive for Brooklin. It is great for her to have an adult in her life that is consistent and that cares about her.

Stephen's Elevator was effective because he enjoyed his Elevator coming and it gave him something to look forward to and be happy about. He also gained more confidence in himself.
