Wing Lake Developmental Center

I don’t recommend this school for the parents, rude teachers and people are there especially for the other races!

I want to put in a good word for an aide who works there. Her name is Aleka and it's very clear she has a love for what she's doing - helping and encouraging young children. It's truly a delight to see her in action!

I have had a great experience with my daughter. She has grown so much here! She is learning Arabic and we don’t speak the language at home. She was recently evaluated outside of school and her math, phonics, and spelling are far above grade level.The staff is really caring. The class sizes are small, and the school is a great community.

The teachers are caring and wonderful. The education is great if your child wants to learn and pays attention. Sadly the parents are very clicky, any great review is because they are part of it. There are ways to reach that status but its never enough if they don't want you in their circle. It’s true parents talk about the kids and their parent which in turn makes the child unpopular. The assistant principle has tried to bring the kids together and has tried to make the disruptive kids accountable, but the parents (the special families) are outraged instead of working with the school and educate the kids to be respectful to adults and their peers. They cannot and will not accept any wrong doing. It is disheartening! New kids don't usually come back after their first year. Its not about not living in the area, we live in Quarton Estates,Birmingham and donate generously. Many of these horrible parents are my neighbors and have never ever included my child for anything to help her fit in. At school parents that volunteer care for their own first and then the others. If you say anything or call them out, they will shun you, and they make it worse. Most of them will go to Marian, good luck, these girls are viciously mean. Its a strong community, a community of bullies. Many of these families are moving on, but I pray that the meanness mitigates, it really has potential to be a great happy school.

My child just took their first standardized test and is several grade levels above their actual grade. All of her friends are above too! The teachers are doing a great job!
