The school does wonderful things with the resources that it has. However the community lacks the will to support the school with resources. School budgets are constantly challenged and the community of Wales has a lack of vision when it comes to education. Wales is turning into a mostly elderly/ retirement community so if you're looking for a place that's good for families and will support your child's education, look elsewhere!
The facility itself is run down. The teachers can't think outside of the box, the administration is not responsive to the needs of the children and if your child is average to above average academically he/she will not be challenged and will become bored and lost in the crowd. One year there was enough to move my children to another disctrict!
I really love this school. It's small, academically challenging, friendly and has a great principal and teachers. They really need a newer building, but do a great job!
