Having been a proud attendee of Wayne Van Horn Elementary School and a resident of the local community for over 20 years, I can wholeheartedly affirm the exceptional quality of education and nurturing environment this school offers. The dedicated staff and teachers at Wayne Van Horn have consistently demonstrated a deep commitment to fostering both academic excellence and personal growth in their students. The curriculum is thoughtfully designed to cater to diverse learning styles, ensuring that each student receives the attention and resources they need to thrive. Furthermore, the school's emphasis on inclusivity and community involvement has greatly contributed to a vibrant and supportive atmosphere. As an alumnus, I am continually impressed by the school's ongoing efforts to adapt and improve, ensuring that it remains a cornerstone of our community. Wayne Van Horn Elementary is more than just a school; it's a place where young minds are nurtured to become the leaders and innovators of tomorrow.

This school is strict people are rude teachers are not understanding.

If your child is disabled or mentally ill, I would advise against sending them here. The staff care more about controlling and harassing students than providing support, and accommodations for students who's struggle comes from something they cannot control. As for safety, there's fights constantly... Nothing has been done about any of the issues going on.
