We have seen a lot of great teachers and Principal's in this school district, but none as good as good as GW has had for many years. The family feel and terrific culture can't be matched. She was the best!

I have two children that go to this school they have wonderful teachers and a awesome music program for band. Warwick the after school Program is excellent . My son needed extra help with reading and they provided it and helped him progress. My daughter has had a wonderful time at the school and is sad to leave. I would recommend this school to anyone.

I have never seen such kindness and caring teachers and staff in my life. My twins are happy there every day. They have good control of the students, who are respectful, listen and are learning. I love this school

Children with special needs are not treated well by this school. It is a stale, crisp, stiff environment. For children who are average to above average, who get along socially with the crowd, it can work well. For students with learning or social disabilities and differences, I would find another school. We have been very disappointed in General Wayne.

Outstanding Elementary School! After 4 years at GWES, I can honestly say that The teachers and staff genuinely care about the development each and every child.

This school is far from concerned about the children and it is all about money and competition. The only people that brag about this school are the ones that are involved in the "circle". They are more concerned with trying to dictate what you should and shouldn't do with your child and aren't concerned about the academics. So DON'T go out of your way to move to the area if your looking for a good school!!! Unless you are a quiet parent that wont be concerned about having a principal break down the rules and your ok with walking into a stale environment daily then I wouldn't consider this place.

Good school if your not in special ed. They keep the special ed kids from doing many activities that are offered. There are so many opportunities and great teachers. There is also alot of bullying and competitions. If you are in special ed in anyway, i dont recommend it. I moved out after 3rd grade to get a better education
