I only have experience with the 6th and 7th grade teams, but the teachers are lovely. They truly enjoy using their team prep time to find the best ways to engage the students and discuss where things can be improved. The best thing a parent can do is spend time working with the school and the teacher for a fuller academic experience for their child.

I have two daughters that go to Wheeler and they just love it! One daughter has joined Track and fully enjoys the coaches and the great facility. My other daughter has built great relationships with her teachers and can't imagine going anywhere else. We are thrilled with the response times of the teachers or principal when there is a question or concern. Teachers truly love their job and the students reflect that. Could not ask for a better experience!

This school is terrible. The teachers have an attitude and are very immature. The teachers are way to nosy and always want to get into your business. They are very bad at explaining projects to the students. The teachers make fun of your child in class. they embarrass them. The women teachers are the cruelest. The teachers are not helpful at all. Although it is a brand new facility the staff is horrible. Every project I get it causes problems at home.

Have had nothing but problems with this school.This is my second child in this school and hate it. I know a ton of other parents who have problems with this school. It is not about the child here,but about funding and faculty.

The facility is new but the staff is a team of experienced professionals. My two sons love the atmosphere of learning and are being well prepared.

This school is the best. I reccomend this school to anyone. It is also brand new. It has a lot of library books. There is a ton of computers in the library. It is the best school ever. I love this school better any of the other schools I have been. The teachers are so nice and caring. I have awesome 7th grade teachers. If you plan on moving, move to Crown Point, Indiana. Trust me you will love it. It is the best school.
