The Wolf Who Cried Boy

A parent observing the struggles of her child and then compassionately exploring every path to help her child overcome these difficulties builds a compelling true story. Carroll parent, Mary Jean Hughes, follows this path and chronicles the struggles of her son, Kyle, in her book "The Wolf Who Cried Boy." Kyle started showing signs of dyslexia before the age of four. After years of tears before each school day and challenging professional evaluations, Mary Jean's son finds, "The best school......and the best teacher in the world." Kyle begins The Carroll School and happily hops into the car at the end of the school day.

Mary Jean, who has a doctorate in education from the University of Massachusetts in Lowell, says "Dyslexia doesn't have to prevent a person from succeeding thanks to schools like The Carroll School..." When referring to her son Kyle, "I think he understands that school is difficult, but he also understands that he is in an environment where (educators) understand his learning disabilities and foster his growth."

In a positive learning environment, the gifted special educators at Carroll offer hope, understanding, and dynamic educational programs to guide Kyle and every Carroll student each day.
