Walberta is a great school. The teachers are wonderful and very caring. They instill a sense of community in the students. It is a warm and welcoming place for all students.

very unhappy with this school, think staff is sub-par, principal is uppity & doesn't know majority of children. Cirriculum is sub-par with fuzzy math & inventive spelling. District ought to be ashamed of itself with taxes paid to live in this area. Many, many unhappy parents, but retribution if you try to voice to any administrator. Many parents find only way to voice opposition is to pay for private school on top of taxes & school administrators don't care since they've already got your money.

About these ratings

The Community Rating is the school’s average rating from its community members (e.g., parents, students, and school staff). The highest possible rating is five stars; the lowest is one star.

Oops! We currently do not have any test score information for this school. Public and charter school test scores for most states come from the state Department of Education. The most common reasons we might not have this data are either that not enough students took the test or that the school was recently opened, and its scores have not yet been reported.
