It's got a great community, has great courses, and very amazing staff. 10/10

I feel that this school has made alot of improvements in the past 3 years in the best interest of the children. A new security system has been installed, new books purchased, and smaller class sizes are making a big difference. Unfortunately this elemantary school still lacks a suitable playground, which is somewhat tragic for these young students who would really enjoy recess more if the equipment were available. I know the PTO has been fundraising for years to eventually purchase new playground equipment, but it looks like my 3rd grader will end up moving on without ever getting the chance to benefit from the new playground.

I beg you to google Wesclin before putting your children through the experience my children have had. The kids and parents of the town tend to be cruel and unwelcoming. The bullying and cliques are not only ignored but often reinforced by some staff members. Sports teams and other awards are based purely on small town politics. It is truly the classic small town cliché. It's been a saddening and wholly disappointing experience that I wouldn't wish on any other children or parents. Many of my child's classmates have been pulled out to homeschool or private academies because it is really and truly that bad. Please, for children's sake, don't move to this district, I promise you will regret it.
