We have been very happy with WRUS. A caring and professional approach to learning that focuses on the student as a whole person.

I loved attending WRUS. They helped me when public school threw me under the rug and forgot about me

A positive experience!! The public school systems large class size made it difficult for my son who is dyslectic reach his potential. He is now confident and ready to move on to college.

we had a wonderful experience with WRUS. The child that started there four years ago is so different than he is today, I have watched him grow and become so much more confident in every way. You really feel like everyone at the school has become extended family and genuinely care about your child. I really don't think he would be where he is today if I hadn't sent him there. Best decision we ever made!

I am entering my Senior year at WRUS and it has been a life changing experience for me. The small class sizes, personal connections with the teachers, and fidgets in the classroom allowed me to really relax and enjoy myself. Everyone in the school knows each other which makes the experience of school much more relaxed. Everyone is so much friendlier. I have started to really think about my future, something I haven't given much thought before I came here. I've been convinced I can do anything I can set my mind to and accomplish anything.

One of my two children attended WRUS for all four years and it was an excellent choice for her. She is now full-time employed and pursuing part-time studies in the field of her choice. In addition to a good education, she gained the confidence, positive attitude and initiative that she needs to succeed thanks to the small classes, individual attention and creative and diverse teaching strategies WRUS tailors to students with varied learning issues. I also credit the school with giving her a greater sense of empathy and appreciation for different kinds of people with different skill sets, backgrounds (social, cultural, economic, etc.) and challenges, and for encouraging her to work and learn cooperatively as opposed to competitively.

Way overpriced, uncertified teachers, and doesn't present like an educational environment at all. It's an environment for kids of wealthy parents to get high school diplomas. Minorities are readily accepted but simply tolerated to meet quotas.
