I've been very pleased with Woodstock Elementary School. My granddaughter moved here this school year and everyone has helped her adjust to the move. Her teacher is excellent with all of the children in her class. I could not have asked for a better school for my granddaughter.

WES was a great school until the 09-10 school year. They made a few staff adjustments and the school has gone down hill. The children do not get the same one on one time the did before. I feel as if they worry more about ARMT & SAT scores than the childrens' grades. I am very concerned my children will behind when they move to a new school.

My Grandchildren attend Woodstock Elementary. I am very impressed with the professional quality in such a small school. All of the employees have always been kind and helpful. The teachers are easily accessible for conferences. The personel has made a tremendous effect on the quality of life for my grandchildren.

This is my daughters second year at WES, she is now in 1st grade. The teachers there are truly awesome! Esp. her kindergarten teacher Mrs. Deerman. The staff are devoted to the children and it shows! The small school feel is perfect for the attention that these kids need! My Only complaint thus far is that Woodstock does not have a middle school of it's own....instead, students are intergrated with strangers from another elementarty school, West Blocton.

I have two children in this school, one K-5 and one in 3rd grade. My experience with WES has been nothing but positive. They really care about the children need to become good citizens. Thank you to all the personnel there, keep up the great work!

They need more parents to get involved with their child's school to help the school out. This school is a good place to go. I have two kids and one of them is going there now. My child loves going there because of the help she can get from the teacher and principal.
