In 2022-2023 they were the very lowest in the state of Iowa for reading test scores. They continue to be in the lower range for the state. They seem to go through special education teachers frequently year after year, just since 2019 they've gone through three next year will be their fourth. They do not close reading gaps like required. They're one of the few schools in Iowa that refuse to do anything for dyslexia. If we were not stuck in this district my kids would not attended. Bullying is a common issue here. They have some really wonderful teachers and then some are very power hungry. I would not recommend this school.

Our test scores are among the best in the state (90% proficient in reading, and 93% in math). Athletics and music programs also perform at the top of the 3A class. Community support is also booming! Size of the school is big enough to have the ability to provide students a wide variety of opportunities, yet small enough that they receive individual attention and don't get lost in the shuffle. WD is a wonderful school and community!

This school has ranked worst reading scores for the year 2022- 2023. They go through teachers frequently along with the elementary school. They have little to no support for kids with dyslexia. Bullying Is a common thing here. They do have some wonderful teachers, but like I said it's pretty common for teachers to leave year after year and only some good ones left.
