[quote=Anonymous]Hi I am a current WES parent (since 2006). The Nursery(3-4yo), Transition (4-5yo), K, and 1 grade are extremely well done. We have first hand experience at 4 other school/preschools and have gone through application process at 6 others. While doing so I compared the curriculum at other places (including the big three) to WES and there were really no differences that justified splitting my kids between more than one school except that WES has smaller class sizes which I view as a positive. Having said that the school/program is not as good in 3,4,5 grade. It is not just disgruntled families with a bias who feel this way. WES traditionally loses a lot of students in theseyears. It is probably a combination. Of the so-so curriculum in these middle years and the fact that some families are wanting to get a jump on the hs admissions process. Sixth grade is amazing and middle school is like the early years, extremely well done. I can't say how the middle years (345) math is compared to other schools because I was never extremly impressed or extremely unhappy with it, but middle school math and science are truly excellent and "rigorous" in our experience. We love WES and I will enthusiastically recommend d it foreay childhood and middle school(678). [/quote]
