Walnut Glen Academy For Excel

I remembered being at this school. I had so many memories. The teachers were great and the environment too. The food was great and the playground too. Overall 10/10!

I have had two children attend this school and ended up pulling them to attend somewhere else. Most of our issues have been with the administration, not the teachers, although we've had a few that were rude and spoke poorly to my child about them wanting him there. My experience is that if your child is an outgoing, self motivated, child with a high self esteem, you will fit in well. Neither of my children fit the "better than others" attitude that seems to be a priority instilled in their students. We (my family and my kids) were not a good fit, so we moved on to another school where we fit in better and the kids SOARED in their learning.

Walnut Glen is a fantastic school! My older daughter who is now a freshman in High School started out here and my son is now in his second year here. The administration, teachers and support staff are very dedicated to maintaining the high levels of learning that this school is known for. The students also take pride in the school and actively participate in everything from their day to day activities, to after school programs and extra curricular PTA events. It is rare to not see a student holding open doors for each other or with a nose buried in a book while in between classes.

Things are not going to change for the better at Walnut Glen so we will pull our child out. As the principal suggested. He is worthless to the education of the children but I guess some one higher up loves him. What a shame for a great school.

I have 2 boys at WGA, and I have been extremely pleased. There have been some changes recently, but it's not anything that's been serious. I think we all have problems with the change, b/c no one likes change. But sometimes change is good. I think our Principal and our Asst. Principal make a great team. They generally love the kids and want the best for WGA. If I ever have a problem, I know I can discuss it with them and they will quickly address it. WGA is a phenominal school and I know my boys are getting the best education that they could get in a public school setting. It's like free private school. Which in my book, is awesome! ~ Kate Wilke
