My son attended WSP from Little Friends through the 8th Grade. He is now attending the best private academy in the area and excelling across all his subjects. WSP prepared him well--not just in subject matter, but providing him with the tools to continue to learn. Because the grades classroom teachers stay with their classes for several years--they really understand how each student learns and are able to create environments where each child can reach their academic potential. I saw another review mention knitting. Actually, it's an entire handwork program where young children are taught to finger-knit and the handwork techniques increase in difficulty through the grades. This is part of the Waldorf curriculum which utilizes the Head, Heart Hands approach to teaching concepts. My (and my son's) experience has found this approach to be highly effective. I definitely recommend WSP.

I attended Winchester Thurston from 4th grade to 12th grade. I loved almost every teacher I worked with and felt very well prepared for collage. The school dealt with bulling well and taught the students respect and compassion. The student to teacher ratio was perfect for me and class sizes were excellent. I can say that i truly loved my experience at WT
