My daughter just finished 5th grade at Weaver. We both teared up as the outstanding principal explained that the students would always be 'Weaver Whales'. I am a teacher and an admitted 'helicopter parent'. We felt supported and well-informed from grades K-5 with only a few minor bumps in the road.

Weaver's academic, art and music program combined with the willingness of teachers to take on different methods of teaching makes it a great place to learn. My daughter had opportunities to grow and give back to the community as a Weaver Ambassador. The daycare (Kids Korner) is fabulous. Mrs. Tiffany, the site coordinator, is the most nuturing, motivated, helpful and creative daycare teacher I've ever encountered! My only regret is that it's not K-8. We will miss you WEAVER!
