[quote=Anonymous]My kids are in middle now (6th and 7th) but we loved GWES!

The principal is a force of nature. She runs the school with passion and sheer will at times, and every kid in that building is "her baby." She is a really unique person and sets the tone in the school.

The workload is intense. I felt like I was back in school too because there were so many projects, so much work all the time. Of course we did not like that but we also knew in advance that we were signing up for a rigorous program that was intense and fast paced. This school produces kids who can think critically and I am so glad my kids had this experience.

The move to Goddard (as GWES) was a royal pain and it impacted the school experience a lot.

The fourth grade teachers are a mix of best and worst, but the fifth grade teachers are amazing. I would nominate them all for national awards. Mrs Stewart comes across as a little bit of zealous and quirky but she is beloved by the kids for good reason.

We have NO regrets about the years we spent at this school, and we could afford private school if we felt it was necessary.
