I’m convinced that anyone that says this school is good, doesn’t have any experience with other elementary schools. Absolutely ridiculous expectations. Not a positive learning environment. Title 1 school… yet where is the money going?? Not the school. It’s run down and doesn’t even have smart boards

This school was great, but my only complaint was that when I went there, the fourth-grade and music classrooms were trailers!

I love this school! The staff is very attentive and really enjoy working with the students. My daughter loves her school, staff and classmates. It is very diverse too which I love.

My son started from preK3 and he is preK4 now. We transferred from a daycare to Walsingham Academy and immediately see the differences on our child's development and well-being. Not only he learned more knowledge, but also he is more healthy here. The warm-heart nurse take care of children with special needs. Teachers are extremely responsible for children's knowledge and good characters development. Before my son started school, he knew little English. But now he can speak English sentences all the time and even at home. The school does a good job to continuously encourage different students to catch up with the rest of the class. But we feel so sorry that we have to move to another city, otherwise I think we are going to complete my child's elementary education here. I visited a few schools in the other city I'm moving to and couldn't find one looks as good as Walsingham Academy.
