3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAll 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!Parent Review6y ago - Wadena-Deer Creek Senior High School

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThroughout my many years attending this establishment I had to fix most matters that should've been handled by faculty myself. I experienced a lot of bullying at various times throught school and expressed this to teachers and office faculty and had nothing done. The only way you're going to be safe is to be okay with hitting someone when it comes down to it. The teacher are near absent with how poorly they are treated by both students and their employers. I can not in my right mind recommend this school to anyone other than white families above the poverty line.Other Review1y ago - Wadena-Deer Creek 5th And 6th Grade
