As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

Open Quote With the school for three years. One year in elementary and two in middle. Not sure why we stuck it out this long. Hoped it would get organized but it hasn't. Principal is this pie in the sky guy who spews educator talk. Talks down to parents and can't explain why he does the things he does. Close Quote

Open Quote We enjoyed our years at the elementary campus but not the middle school campus. Our youngest, still in elementary, will not go on to the STEM middle school. For lack of a better way of putting it the middle school is too unstructured. Lots of self-paced activities with too much time between progress checkpoints and milestones. It's easy for kids to fall behind in this environment and then struggle to catch up. My husband and I still haven't figured out as parents how to know week to week if our kid is on track or not so we don't know when or how to be involved. Several teachers sent us emails last year midway through the last trimester worried about our kid completing objectives. Despite attending conferences and monitoring the online system these came as complete surprises. The principal tells us we just aren't understanding the "new paradigm". He's definitely right about that part. Close Quote

Open Quote Most new families at this school just gurgle with excitement. It's fun and different, loaded with possibilities. If you are thinking about going to this school make sure you talk to families who've been around for a few years. The change and turmoil here are exhausting and by the start of your third year you'll be wondering what you ever saw in this school. The middle school program is very unstructured. Everything is "self-paced". If your child isn't the type to speak up and ask a teacher for assistance then do not attend this school. Teachers will not tell you if you child is doing well or not until it's too late and the system they use to track it is impossibly complicated to understand. Then when you ask teachers to explain how your kid is doing because you as a parent don't get their crazy system they act annoyed. Close Quote

Open Quote You'll hear the term "self-paced" at this school alot. What that means is that teachers pawn off student time management onto parents so they don't have to maintain much structure. I didn't like the concept the first time when it was called Montessori. This isn't labeled a Montessori school but it's very close in many regards. Not all students thrive in this environment. My son doesn't like attending this school but some students just love it. You should be sure this is a good fit before you apply. Close Quote

Open Quote We've been with this school for 3 years and it's only kind of meh. Except for one all the teachers we've had have been really good. The downfall of this school is that everything is really disjointed. Lots of great initiatives but they are all over the place. Parents are always complaining about the same things over and over again but leadership doesn't seem to care. Surprisingly, for a STEM school, they have the most amazing art and music teachers ever at both campuses. We like to see more emphasis on grammar and such but have heard parents across the entire district complain about this so I suspect it's not unique to STEM academy. Close Quote

Open Quote Most teachers are exceptional but that's about all that's great. I highly recommend thinking twice about attending WSA. It's called STEM but all they care about is prepping students for the Engineering Academy in the district. If your kid is truly interested in pure science, math or technology not directly related to engineering then this is not the school for you. Literacy is a complete afterthought here. They also try out all sorts of crazy teaching methods that don't seem to have anything to do with their stated mission. Attending this school is a serious chore for students and parents alike. I regret choosing this school for my child but it's just to challenging to change at this point. Close Quote

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
