Posted February 3, 2012

This is probably a good school is you have a typical child. However, if you have a child with special needs, the school is the worst place for your child. Some teachers and administration are not able to really adapt to the needs of the child. My son has been in the public school system for 12 years and the year he had at Wilsonville Elementary was the worst year he ever experienced. We were close to contacting an attorney to represent my son's needs. It was a relief when he moved on to another school.
