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 - St James School
