Northeast is an engaging community of teachers, students, and parents coming together to support learning. Both of my children have had nothing but wonderful experiences there, and they both went through the “gifted” program there as well. I love that Waltham supports the arts and has a drama elective (with performances) every year, and allows students to start instruments in 3rd grade. Other districts don’t start instruments until 4th or 5th grade. This school is exceptionally diverse, and my kids learned a lot about other cultures and countries just from their friends here—international night at Northeast is also not to be missed! I don’t know why this school ranks low, as it’s run by loving, supportive staff and my kids are way above grade level expectations because of the talented teachers here. Highly recommend!
