Staffs seem to be friendly and encouraging to the students. My grandson felt comfortable on the first day.
Posted by a student on 3/16/2024We have been at Washington ES for five years (two kids attending, currently in 5th and 3rd grade) and have had a wonderful experience! The teachers we have had have all been caring, enthusiastic, and motivating. The administration has also been excellent. Our kids really enjoy the electives and the
Posted by a parent on 2/13/2022School is warm, caring and supportive for children and families at all time. They strive to support each individual's strength or challenges as a team. It is great to see team work of teachers and offer variety of wonderful electives. We just love this school so much.
Posted by a parent on 10/19/2021We have nothing but positive things to say about Washington. The teachers, leadership, elective offerings, campus, etc were all phenomenal. Our child was at Washington for several years and transferred elsewhere this year due to a move. We miss Washington! We knew it was a great school prior to the

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe switched schools to come here in 2nd grade and I'll just quote my almost 8 year old - "Hunter is the best school on the east coast!" He is a nerd and he has found his nerdy people! The electives are incredible, the teachers are incredible, and everyone is just so kind and normal and excited to be there. He goes to school happy and comes home happy. I couldn't ask for a better school for him and I'm thrilled to be a part of such a special place.Parent Review4mo ago - Wiley Elementary

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAt Cathedral some teachers and administrators genuinely care about the students and consistently show respect to all families. Those individuals create a supportive environment and set a positive example for students.At times, it felt like only certain students and families were truly welcomed and valued. The high principal turnover has also been concerning and creates a lack of stability. As a faith-based school, there should be more consistency in leading with kindness, fairness, and God’s love toward all students and families.Suggested Changes:Communication needs significant improvement. Staff could benefit from additional leadership, communication, and professionalism training to better support students and families.Overall:For the cost of private school tuition, families expect stronger communication, consistency, and treatment. Unfortunately, our experience in those areas was often disappointing.Parent Review1mo ago - Southeast Raleigh Elementary
