[quote=Anonymous]Happy patient of 2 WJ students here (never had a student at Whitman). Because the school is so big, my children have had no problem finding their people. Oldest into arts, youngest is an athlete, both have friends and are happy. On the other hand, it's crowded (and Woodward won't open for a few more years). Because it is so large it can be a challenge making the team/getting a role when so many go out for teams/audition for shows. The principal is great - I have found her to be incredibly responsive. Teachers, I imagine like at any school (or any colleagues at any office), are hit or miss: some are OMG amazing and some are awful and most are inbetween. My kids have had mostly the good ones, some great ones, and only one where my student knew on day one they needed needed get out of that class, and went to counselor, advocated for them self, and counselor made the change. Both are on track to have 12-14 AP classes when they graduate (necessary to show rigor and compete with peers when the school is so large). The community, for both kids, and us as adults, has been warm, friendly and welcoming.[/quote]
