As a teacher myself, I can see the difference between old-fashioned book-and-worksheet teaching and authentic, research-based learning. Wilder staff seem to favor the authentic brand of teaching.

I think considering the fact that the school has only been open a few months, they're doing a wonderful job. The school is beautiful, the teachers are not only nice but seem to be doing a great job of teaching to the levels the students are ready for rather than teaching down to district standards.
