I love how all the teachers work together. It is obvious that the pricipal and teachers care a lot about our children's future. My children come home everyday telling me about their day without promting.

I think SWS is a wonderful school. It is a small school, with family atmosphere. The teachers seem to be very good. My first grader has learned so much in the short time she's been here.

This is our 7th year at this school. I have one child who went to kindergarten through fifth grade here and another child who is still attending. It has been a great school with wonderful teachers. We have really liked every teacher and thought they were professional and seemed to really enjoy teaching. Each morning all the children go to a peace circle and and say the pledge of allegiance and have a mantra of teaching 'peace'. The principal and teachers here have been quick to respond to concerns and issues brought up through out the years.

I think that SWS is a great! school. My daughter is in her 3rd year here and she loves it. All of her teachers have been great! I love the way her now the grade teacher 1st introduced herself to me on the first day of school. Se looked me in the eyes and with a very warm smile introduced herself. After meeting all of the parents she then remembered who I was and my childs name. I feel like all of the teachers really care about the students and make a personal effort to help them succeed in whatever they put their mind to do. I also love the ESS program, I just wish that it was a bit cheaper. Overall, I love this school.

We have been attending this school for five years now and I am very pleased with the way this school is run. All of the teachers are very good role models and show the children how to excel in their studies. They have all made learning a fun and rewarding experience. The ESS program this school provides is wonderful. They have a great staff and the children have so much fun in whatever activity they do from homework, play time or extra curricular activities. It is such a great feeling when your children want to go to school and SWS always makes you feel welcome.

I have a student who is currently enrolled. Unfortunately there is an issue of student privacy, we feel is not respected. Students are treated according to financial status. Extremelly Unethical. Children of this age need support, not humiliation and ridicule.
