I used to be a student here but my mom took me out and put me in a bad school. When I was at school without walls it was the best school I had ever been to. I didn't know there was a really good school like that in the city.

I started my Highschool years at another city school and in my 10th grade year i decided to attend SWW. It was by far the best decision i have ever made. the staff members of this school are amazing and helped me through some of the hardest times in my life. it taught me to be a better person and find out who i really am. I think that everyone should look into this school and see if its' the right fit for your child

Unfortunately we completed regretted the decision to enroll a student at this school. She never felt physically safe, and the academics were not at all up to snuff for a bright college-bound student. When I visited the school during the school day, there was always a sense of chaos; of adults being there but not really paying attention to what was going on. She did not stay there very long.

I'm not a parent but I am a student currently attending SWW and I have to say that this is the best decision I've ever made. Everyone and everything that is taught here at SWW is a life changing experience. If parents are deciding to send their children to a school with several opportunites send them to check out SWW. I'll be sure you won't regret it.

Imagine a school that lets kids find alternitave ways of learing, be it indepenmdantly learning a subject, or a more hands on way to approach the whole learning spiel.

My son started at SWW this Fall. Together we interviewed all the City High Schools and decided on SWW for many different reasons. The greatest factor was the positive energy the faculty and the students displayed. The second largest factor was the over all population of the school it . The student body consists of approx 265 students. I believe a smaller environment makes a great deal of different. My son has been very successful this 1st quarter. He has the support of the faculty and the student body to advance he skills and strengthen his weakness. I would high recommend checking SWW out. SWW promotes the academic skills for life and learning. SWW is a top-notch school.
