Warner Elementary School

I graduated from St. Ann's and so did my children. The school averages 20-25 students per class. The Pre-K, K, and 1st all have assistants. There is a great focus on religious values and faith. Teachers work very hard to prepare students with social and educational skills. The school is greatly supported by the parish. Students needs are evaluated to enable services such as reading and math assist, as well as advanced math options. The lunches are ordered on a daily basis from an outside source or children bring a packed lunch. Before care and after care are also options offered to parents with working schedules. Instruction is reinforced with the use of Chrome Books and computer resources that partner with their textbooks. I high rate and recommend this school for a valued education of any child

Please do not send your child here if they have any learning differences. My child has fairly standard ADHD diagnosed at 4 and treated well with many out of school resources. We wanted to have our children supported with Quaker principles and were enticed to WFS by home and school consultants as well as psychological consultants. Unfortunately, the deep lack of understanding of educating and supporting kids with learning differences led to us pulling my child from WFS. We were fortunate to have her long-term external psychologist join the learning plan meetings and confirmed our suspicion that the expectations and plans being set in place were setting my child up for failure. They were relying repeatedly on intrinsic motivation as opposed to external reward. Intrinsic motivation, in all of us, takes time to develop but particularly for a 6 year old ADHD child. We were so deeply disappointed that they could not flex to live by the Quaker principles of community and include and accommodate even the most mild learning difference. If your child can fit into a very narrow box of high achievement, WFS is a great school for them. Otherwise, you are best looking elsewhere.
