Octorara Primary Lc

This is my sons first year in the Elementary building and I'm far from impressed. This year he has come home upset numerous times that all he hears is yelling from the teachers, not at him, but at other students. I've heard teachers yelling from inside the building while I was on the other end of the parent pickup line. There needs to be some kind of separation with that because I've also spoke to other parents that also say the same. My son is in 3rd grade and recieved flash cards to practice for example 3+1, 2-0. To me that's absurd! This school is so far behind in the curriculum. My parents moved out here and when I started at Octorara I remember saying to myself how ridiculous, I've learned this 2 years ago!! My parents used to say they wouldn't send there dog to Octorara. I thought the PLC was great and as far as I was concerened the school had come a long way. Now I believe I was very wrong. Should have stayed in Downingtown, which is a wonderful school. I am considering private school at this point.

I would recommend it to anyone. It has been a wonderful experience and I could not have picked a better place to raise our kids. Both will graduate above a 4.0 with good SAT scores. They love their community and school and are well rounded young adults. I couldn’t be more thankful.

My experience at this school is best summed up by two enthusiastic thumbs up!

This school is quite the hidden gem in our area. The academics are very competitive (better than local public schools), the character building in unparalleled, and the sense of community is wonderful. You feel the love when you walk into the building. Graduates come from WFCS with a top notch education and remarkable integrity. Best school around.
