Loved it. Loved age mechanics, woods in manufacturing, wood class, had a great selection of math when I was there in the early 2000s. Great teachers

My child’s experience at the North Walpole School has been amazing! They provide so much more than just academics to all of the students. They challenge them in the classroom and also create experiences for them that go beyond the grade level expectations. You are truly shocked at how much all of the staff members do to contribute to a positive experience. They believe in their students and push them to do their best each day. They also teach the students on how to be kind and respectful human beings. The students work on many projects that give back to local groups and help students realize the importance of community service. This is an amazing school that I’m proud to send my student to!

Amazing staff who care about the students and want them to succeed. They all provide a loving, caring and memorable experience for every student. They challenge them and make sure they are prepared with the expected skills for their grade level. Such a great school who truly cares about the students and families. This is a great team who have the students best interest at heart.

I would not send your child to Walpole elementary school. The teachers are of no help to the students. These children have 6 classes a day with multiple assignments all due at once. The work load is overbearing and strenuous on these children and teachers aren’t understanding of kids becoming frazzled and insist it’s to help them prepare for high school level work. The high school level work by the way is only 4 classes a day compared to the 6 they take at the middle school. The multiple binders, folders, and notebooks (disorganization disguised as supposed organization) caused my child more of a headache, but also caused him to lose focus on the important stuff. Instead of being excited for class and what he was going to learn that day, he was more focused on where he was going next and how he was going to continue to do this all day and get all his assignments done that week. Also there is a lot of gossip, cliques, peer pressure, fitting in, bullying, cyberbullying, drama, friend conflict, and social hierarchies not only between students but within the staff and administrators as well.
