I think this school is great. The kids perform at a very high level in English and Spanish, especially if they are in a specialized program like ISP or gifted. The school ranking is lower than it deserves because they take in all kids. It is a regular school that takes in all the kids in their boundary unlike charter and magnet schools that just pick and choose kids.

I personally think the school is great. Teachers and all staff are very attentive to your needs or you child's need.

My two kids attended CW and it was the best instruction ever. One is already in college and the second one is a senior, their success in school started because of the great foundations received in CW.

There is a great mix of class sizes at CWE. Our daughter is in 3rd grade gifted and there are 32 students in the class. Our youngest is in 'kinder' and there are less than 20 in class. Obviously we can not speak for the entire school, but the class size does not seem to affect them. The attention paid by the teachers and level of learning thus far is excellent. Being it a bi-lingual school (first in the nation), the child has a double challenge, but it is brought in a very well balanced package, which is very well managed by the staff and teachers.

This school is the worst school ever! They treat our child like they were criminals! And most of the kids lower other kids self-esteem!

Overall I am somewhat discourage with the bilingual program. I feel it's taking time from our children to learn more grammar and math in english than in spanish. 60% english it is not suffient time. They should have it at least 80%. Although I am bilingual myself, I see that my son is having difficulties w/both languages at the same time.

Although I was thrilled about the idea that my child learn another language, I am devastated the lack of it has counted against my child. My child failed math (taught completely in Spanish), despite my constant communication with the school and extra tutoring. Tests/projects/assignments are not posted or notified to parents and they are never returned. How can we review mistakes made? We are very disappointed.

My child has attended the school since 3rd grade and I am disappointed to say that the overall quality of the school seems to be suffering. The afterschool program is very disorganized and unsafe. On several occasions they have 'lost' my child, not having any idea where he was, unacceptable. Parents have a hard time getting information in a timely manner. The school seems overcrowded and overwhelmed by the vo;lume of students it has. On a good note, the majority of the teachers are excellent and dedicated and are the only reason I accept the administrative shortcomings and do not remove my child.

My daughter just finished 1st grade and this school has been great. the teachers were majorly involved. However, the only thing that I did not understand was when a student is out, they can not make up the work. but over all a great school. including the office staff.
