As a father, I’ve been very impressed with this elementary school and the direction it’s heading.The teachers are dedicated and genuinely care about their students. They take the time to really know each child — recognizing their strengths, supporting their growth, and making sure they feel safe and valued. It’s clear they care about more than just academics; they’re helping shape confident, well-rounded kids.The school promotes an inclusive environment where students feel welcomed and respected. There are also meaningful opportunities beyond the classroom that allow kids to grow, build leadership skills, and explore their interests.Since the current principal stepped in, there’s been noticeable progress. Communication has improved, expectations are clear, and there’s a strong commitment to raising the bar and moving the school forward. It’s reassuring to see leadership that is truly invested.Overall, this is a school community that cares — and that makes a difference.

Indian Queen became the place that reminded me why I fell in love with teaching in the first place. Walking into the building each day felt lighter. The students are not only well behaved, but genuinely eager to learn. It was refreshing and uplifting to be surrounded by teachers who truly enjoy being with their students. There’s a real sense of joy in the classrooms and a culture built on collaboration, support, and learning from one another. You don’t feel alone here—you feel like part of a team.The parents are incredibly supportive and deeply involved in their children’s education, which creates such a strong partnership between home and school. And under Dr. McCall’s thoughtful guidance, the school is run with care, clarity, and heart.Indian Queen didn’t just give me a workplace—it gave me back my passion.

I hate this school. It’s literally so horrible and I’ve been here for so long and the walls are practically falling apart.

A Fort Hunt gem. What a fantastic school in a safe, charming area. Between living in Hollin Hall and attending this school, there isn’t a much better place for a kid to grow up so close to the city. I’ve heard nothing but good things about Waynewood, and I’m proud it’s a part of the community.

This is an excellent school! I would recommend it to anyone wanting their child or children to succeed academically! My adult kids attended this school and now my granddaughter attends. I am so glad that it's here! The staff is very caring and cultivates independence in the child. If you try it, you will be glad that you did.
