We like this school! Artwork on the walls made by kids. Really warm atmosphere. Nice teachers. Good support staff. Kids welcoming to new students.
I cannot begin to tell you how much I love this school... My oldest daugher started here when she was in 3rd grade and vienna did wonders with her! My youngest daughter began vienna and we moved so she is now in another school in the district that is supposed to be one of the top school.. Needless to say we will be returning to Vienna because there is so much more to this school! Mrs Dee's makes your child feel like they are one of her own this is a wonderful school and cant wait to bring my daugher back next year! She cant wait either!
My daughter started Vienna at the end of fourth grade. I was worried about her starting a new school so late in the game and if she would get lost in the shuffle. WOW, this school is so wonderful and she excelled as if we hadnt moved and changed schools at all. MS. DEES is the best thing that any school system could ever ask for. She is the asst Principal but as far as im concerned she is the SCHOOLs everything. She is the most personable person who you can tell truly cares about each student and her teachers and staff. Her entire heart and soul is in this school and our children. I can not say enough good things about her and how happy my daughter is at Vienna. Makes me even happier that we moved to enjoy such a wonderful school even if for a short time.
Vienna is like no other school! It is a home for all children. The school is a community of students, parents, teachers, administrators working to nurture each child and provide an appropriate level of challenge. VIenna provides an appropriate balance between a focus on achievement and raising responsible citizens. It truly is amazing in every aspect!
Vienna has impressed me so much with regards to the leadership and their attention to any and all concerns regarding my children. I have three children in this school- this is our first year here as we moved from Charlotte this summer. Mrs. Dees has been a wonderful leader and her level of care for the whole child and making certain their experience here is positive has been such a pleasant surprise. I feel like I am in private school here- they care what we as parents think, the teachers and leaders listen, and in addition to being an excellent scoring school academically, they are able to incorporate that warm community feel bringing fun to the classroom as well. I love it here- and so do my children- we are lucky to be here!
Vienna is the best kept secret in WSFCS. The leadership is responsive and knows the student body exceptionally well. The teachers are fantastic and everything is geared toward what is best for the child. The parent involvement is also top-notch. I now have 2 children in this school after spending 2 years at another highly-rated school in the zone. There is no comparison between the two: My and my children's experience at Vienna is superior academically and socially. Vienna does an exceptional job with gifted kids and those that dont fit the mold. I highly recommend to anyone who will listen.
Vienna is a school of communications and has unique qualities such as a live broadcast every morning and instant recess on Tiger TV everyday. The staff is outstanding and goes above and beyond anything that is asked.
My daughter attended Vienna for 6 years and Ms. Dess is the best, bar none, school administrator we have ever met. Vienna is a public school but the school works as a private school. Staff and parents work together happily. #1 school in the system.
So far so good. We transfered from out of state and I was on guard to protect my children. I have been treated with care and so have my children. No school can ever be purfect, but with the teachers and the wondeful AP Mrs. Dees, this school will try beyond human limits to be the best, not only with their test scores but with how happy the children feel there. Definelty one the of best schools in the WSFCS district. I haven't ahd any problems so I can't say how that would be handled but my feeling is that Mrs. Dees will try hard to resolve any issue that would arrive. The olny reason I would give four stars instead of five is because five would be for perfection which I can't say, who is purfect
I highly recommend this school. This is not her district school but was one of the five choices we had. After reviewing all 5 schools, this was on top. We are thankful she is allowed to come here. The teachers listen to your concerns and communicate with the parents when needed. I love the fact how the parents are so involved with the kids and school.
