Anonymous: Shimmell School's group process approach is what this community has needed for a long time. I am so happy that children in this city have an opportunity to learn to communicate appropriately instead of relying on their fists. Shimmell's adventure-based education programming has facilitated many students who might not have thought they possessed a gift to make those gifts shine! Kudos to the teachers at Shimmell who make this happen every day for students in the city of Harrisburg!!!
