The leadership at this school is atrocious. I cannot believe I sent my children to this school for as long as I did. We spent a year at this school and my children have called so far behind. Im our previous state we moved from where education is much better, they thrived! Here, they went backwards dramatically.
I believe it may be due to the low income in the area. The administration must be the people that couldnt get into River Dell, Riverwood, or Thanksgiving.
Children deserve a good education. Sadly, this school will not provide that. Terrible, terrible school overall.

If you are thinking about moving to the area and you are zoned for this school, RUN as fast as you can and stay away. It is truly unbelievable how unorganized this school is when it comes to procedures and ensuring the overall well being of the children. Ensuring that a child is aware of when assignments are due as well as what is being taught should be a priority. Not here. My son attended this school and I never knew what they were working on, or what to study with him. I asked 8 times to 4 different people and the only answer I could get was let me look into it. Which actually means I have no idea either, hopefully youll stop asking.
In our family, education is such a very high priority and my son has been on an IEP for over 5 years. In the matter of THREE weeks, they decided to remove him from his IEP. Not performing evaluations or assessing him properly per state standards.
Their response to this was that he was doing better than other students so they felt he didnt need it anymore. The reason he was doing well was BECAUSE of his IEP.
There is a reason this school is rated poorly and I completely understand why now. We have since transferred to a Charter school in the area, THANK GOD.
Im going to pray for the families that unfortunately have to attend this school. I will pray that the population stays low here so they cannot regress too many children in our community. I wish I would have listened to the several of mothers that told me to run, not walk when they knew we where we were going to attend.

WMES is a great school. The administration is great, teachers are wonderful.. The proof is in the test scores, they are the best they have ever been. Parents are always welcome. Love it!
