My child has attended Wentworth grades K-4th. While they do have many fundraisers, we need to remember that there is not much funding form the goverment. Wentworth has been teaching our children for over 80 years. My childs grandparents went to the old wentworth school. They must be doing something
... Read more right! For everyone that questions the value of this school, I challenge you to give a hour a day to the students and staff of Wentworth, to read with a child, or to help a child with a math concept that they are having trouble with. You will see the love and attention that they share. No child is left behind. It does not matter rather they are 'gifted' or maybe struggling with something. The staff @ Wentworth realizes that we all have 'gifts' and 'struggles'. and they care for each student the same. Who can fault them for that? Read less

My two children attended the 05-06 school year, as a second grade transfer and a Kindergartener. This is a good school if your kids need a lot of review and drill and practice. If your child is creative or gifted, I would not recommend it. They are very concerned with 'their way of doing things' and

Also, whenever I went through my kids' bookbags, I made sure I had my checkbook available. Never before have I seen such fundraising, in addition to other worthwhile causes such as St. Jude's Math-A-Thon and Jump Rope for Heart. I am transferring both children back to the school my second grader came from, and plan to let child number three attend the old school as well, even though it is out of district. Read less
