The Principal and staff at this school are wonderful and really care about the kids. I am happy my daughter has the chance to experience this school. There is always some wonderful activity being held and their reading program for the kids is excellent. I cannot say enough good things about this school.

I am a parent of two boys who have gone to the school. The principal is wonderfully dedicated and has very high standards. She is goal oriented and not afraid to try new things when it comes to the childrens academics and overall achievement. The school does need some updating physically and the gym programs could be more extensive and educational but all in all a great school for a small district.

Both my boys attended WW School and I have nothing but praise and gratitude for the school and the staff who work there.

Mrs.Cardosa, the principal is an amazing woman who amazes me with her abilities. She is kind, patient, and remembers not only every students but their parents as well. She is extremely involved with every aspect of the kids education and visits each class as often as possible and addresses any issues immediately.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 New York used the New York State Assessments to test students in grades 3 through 8 in English language arts and math, and in grades 4 and 8 in science. The results for English language arts and math are displayed on GreatSchools profiles and the science results will be added when they are released in the Fall of 2013. The tests are standards-based, which means they measure how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of New York. The goal is for 90% of students to meet or exceed grade-level standards on the tests.
