GreatSchools Rating

All four of our children have attended public school in wadena and we have been and continue to be very pleased with our choice to send them here. The teachers we have had genuinely cared about the well being of our kids, they weren’t just some random student. Even with other schools nearby we will always be enrolling our kids at WDC, there’s never been a need to look elsewhere!

"the number of rude inconsiderate neighbors, one stalks and harasses us and my 12 yr old to the point where we need a restraining order and calls the cops making false reports using the system to try and make out lives hell. also the insane number of dogs that bark non-stop and have the most irresponsible owners I've ever seen! a normal person would shut the dog up right away but not in this neighborhood from hell! I'm moving as soon as I can and never looking back!"
