My son and daughter attend Wiley. We have had great experiences with their teachers. It's a diverse school with a strong PTA. We've been undergoing a long renovation, but the teachers and staff have handled it as best they could. Some families left Wiley because the new location was not convenient, which was a loss to our community. I feel like the families who stayed are very committed to the school. We are excited to see the new building when it's done!
