They cared way more about appearance then actual substance but not terrible

I admit when I looked at the great schools score I was nervous about my child attending. But I have been pleasantly surprised with this school. Her teachers have been amazing communicators and my daughter has said nothing but positive things about the teachers and their care and understanding. We are a military family and they went out of their way to meet with my child and ease her transition to a new school and state. My only complaint would be with the other students themselves —— there were a lot of behavior issues in her classroom. … but I believe that has more to do with the students parents than with the school.

This school is dangerous. Children with behavior problems are not dealt with and left in classrooms to throw tables and chairs. Students who are well behaved are ignored while teachers are dealing with violence and extreme disobedience. One poorly behaved child can keep an entire class from a resource because they refuse to get out of their seat. When a teacher gets help from admin for the poor behavior, they're walked around the school and returned back to the classroom with a toy showing everyone else in the classroom that poor behavior gets you fun time walking the halls and your favorite squishy or bubbles! Students who dominate their classroom assaulting the teacher/students (even a child strangling a teacher with a lanyard!) can do the bare minimum of expectations and they're celebrated for it just enforcing that poor performance is the way to win at WBP. If you want your child to go to a school where they're in extreme danger of a head injury from a flying chair, this is your school. If you want your child to actually learn something where they're not in constant danger, look elsewhere. I'm leaving my home of 15 years just to get away from this school.
