We moved to MA from AZ, and absolutely love Wood End. We didn’t know what to expect moving from a good Charter School in AZ, but Wood End has more than exceeded our expectations in every way. It’s a safe, fun and loving environment where our kids are flourishing and we couldn’t be happier!

Caring and experienced teachers and staff on beautiful grounds and facilities. My two kids had a great time learning and making friendships.

From an inside view: Seeing the artwork on the walls and the creativity of the staff and students has been a welcome sight in this pandemic! Thank you teachers for trying hard to give kids a fun learning environment, while teaching 2 classrooms and remote students at once, AND thinking about keeping kids safe at the same time. This year has been no small feat. I am impressed by the learning and encouraged by the happy faces playing outside. I have asked several kids, and they enjoy in-person school- even with the masks. Great school videos involving kids and staff!

Love Wood End Elementary. The principal and the teachers are fantastic. Our son is thriving there. I also like that the PTO does a lot of work so that things like field trips, etc are covered for kids. The outdoor classroom they're building will be excellent.

We moved to the district at the end of my daughter's second grade school year. We moved specifically for this school and the wonderful principal there was at the time. Little did I know that principal wouldn't be there the very next school year. The new principal is not friendly with the students and constantly speaks down to students and parents alike. The teachers are not competent when they do show up for work, resulting in poor test scores and learning environment for our children. Although this is public school, the principal and staff have expectations of a military academy. The children are expected to be silent or whisper throughout the whole school day with no exception for lunch and recess. We are now in my daughter's last year at this school and I just can't wait for it to be over. I am so disappointed in the school as a whole and feel foolish for paying the exceptionally high taxes to pay the salaries of these lackluster individuals at this school.
