William H. Brown has been a safe haven for a large number of children. Over the past five years, the school has undergone a period of tremendous growth. The school's administration and staff are extremely dedicated. Kids come first at WBA!

my daughter attends 8th grade in this school and has since she was in 6th. The staff and parent liason really care about helping your child reach thier full potiential. Parents Working alongside school administration and staff helps with student success. One main issue I have with the school is no up grades and the school was built in the earjy 1800's.

This is the worse school! My son attended this school, and he will not be back for the 2005/2006 school year. My son had FOUR teachers for the entire school year. The first teacher retired, the second teacher was reassigned in January. The third teacher assigned by the end of January, didn't care about his students and he didn't communicate with the parents! After speaking the the Assistnat Principal, I was told he was a substitute teacher! He was replaced by the fourth teacher in May! The principal and the assistant principal are horrible! And the bus service transferring the students to and from the school was always late, especially in the winter and left students behind after school!
