"Dog owners will like that there’s so much grass and sidewalks to walk in. Nearby we have a Petco, Petsmart, and Pet Kingdom, so needs for the pups are accessible."

" I was born and raised here. The Truth is there is 8 E. 5 N. and five S. and Pacific Highway are easily accessible and close just about less than a mile in any direction. But traffic is horrendous. The freeway entrance might be half a mile away but because of traffic it could take you 30 minutes to get to it. With schools the Navy base And normal commute it is very congested. The streets here just get locked."

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageVery disappointing experience with this school. My child is in 1st grade here. If your child needs extra help with reading or math, be aware that there is very little additional support provided.Communication and responsiveness from the administration have also been frustrating. It often feels like parents’ concerns are not taken seriously, and there is little willingness to work with families or find reasonable solutions.I am also concerned about safety. The smaller gates are frequently left open, and it seems that anyone can enter or leave the campus freely, including children, without proper supervision or control.Parent Review6mo ago23 Reviews - Wildwood Academy
