“Mr. Claycomb shows his students what they’re capable of, and then does everything in his power to get them there. My child has needed some extra attention and nurturing this year, and instead of feeling like a burden, Mr. Claycomb has made him feel loved and safe. He’s truly been a godsend. My child has learned more things and become more confident in his abilities than ever before.”
