We came from a private school as Covid lockdown was ending because my child had a medical condition that left her vulnerable to the disease. Her private school wasn’t following safety guidelines, nor were they going to adapt for her safety. It was pure luck that WHES was our neighborhood school, and wound up being everything we needed and more. The majority of families are local, and it’s resulted in a strong community with an active parent presence in their Booster Club. The administration, faculty, and staff care deeply about their students. They focus on the whole child. My child is happy, healthy, learning, and safe thanks to WHES. There was a time we left for a year to attend a magnet because we needed IEP support that was lagging, however, we returned immediately when the school replaced their ineffective AP because we missed our WHES community.WHES’s principal is approachable, experienced, and invested in the success of her school community. We’ve been there from K-4, and every teacher we’ve had has been exceptional. These teachers are invested. They’re delivering a quality education (academically, socially, emotionally), and they partake in professional development to ensure they continue to deliver the best for their students. Visit any classroom on that campus and you’ll walk out confident that you’re making the correct decision to attend WHES.
