We love this school! Our child started kinder last fall and we cannot say enough great things about Wedgeworth. The school's greatest strength is its dedicated teachers, who are very resourceful and have the biggest heart, our friendly principal is very accessible and highly involved. Wonderful Chinese Dual Language Immersion Program, onsite Youth Science Center, active, dedicated PTA and parents, and a low teacher-student ratio are also other big pluses. A small school environment truly makes your family feel like an important part of the school and not "just a number". The school could use some physical upgrades and updates, but what school doesn't have room for improvement? The most important thing is that Wedgeworth has a lot of school pride and school spirit, and it truly brings out the best in its students.
Come and visit Wedgeworth, a CA Distinguished Award School, the Home of the Warrior Pride with API 930! We have 340 FANTASTIC students (2011-2012), very SUPPORTIVE parents, and truly DEDICATED teachers and staff. It's an EXCELLENT PLACE TO LEARN!
Excellent staff, teachers, students, and parents. I like the small school environment. Stronger art, music, & P.E. programs would make them even better.
I am very impressed with the overall academic structure. My daughter started kindergarten in the fall of 2010 and loves her school. This school has it all put together! The principal and teachers are great and are very dedicated to their profession. I am a very proud parent and will continue to support this school in very way possible.
Wonder no more! IT IS THE DISNEYLAND of education. You really know what's going on behind the scenes??? Behind the scenes are the BEST teachers, BEST Principal and BEST parents working very hard to make this school the BEST school there is. The school may not have the best facilities but the resourcefulness and the creativeness of everyone working in Wedgeworth has proven that even without the most modern facilities, it CAN and it HAS produced the best students.
Wow! Someone has been working overtime to make Wedgeworth sound like the DISNEYLAND of Education! It makes me wonder what is really going on behind the scenes.
My kids love this school. The principal, the teachers, the PTA, and the parents are very involved with our kids' education and their success at this school. Thank you all for your commitments and supports.
Awesome school! My 2 kids really enjoy this school. Great teachers! Love Love it!
I know that this is a great school judging from how much my daughter has learned and still learning. I have seen my daughter progress and how much she is challenged (in a good way, of course) by teachers and her schoolmates alike. The balance between educational activities and other extra-curricular activities is so important for the upbringing of our children and I do believe that Wedgeworth has done a great job in doing that. We just totally love this school, the principal, the teachers, the students and co-parents. Keep up the good work, Wedgeworth!
very good management which includes teachers, staff and PTA. Low school strength. High API score. Good students.
