Understaffing leading to lack of support for students. The community is aggressive and it shows through the students.
Posted by a parent on 12/22/2025I really love Bowers. My son is in first grade and has had such a positive experience so far (he was in K at Bowers, as well).

Posted by a parent on 3/9/2016Bowers is a wonderful school with a tremendous sense of school and community spirit. Our child loves it at Bowers and really feels like a part of something great.

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageHorrible experience at this school. There are some great educators, but there are some very unprofessional staff members at Waddell. Some of there actions are targeting and biased. I have documented falsified information, on multiple occasions, of grades and other misinformation. Not a great learning environment.Parent Review1y ago - Assumption School
