  We've found Waggoner to be a wonderful choice for our children. They have an extraordinary community of teachers, staff, administrators, and families that make it feel like home. Not only have my children flourished in their academics but in their social & emotional skills as well. The school provides a welcoming environment that is inclusive and supportive. We've been impressed beyond expectation and look forward to being a Wildcat family for years to come.

  I couldn't be happier with the teachers, leadership, and support staff at C.I. Waggoner.

  We've been going to this school for 2 years and we couldn't be more pleased! The environment is positive, the teachers are incredibly patient and really love teaching. I couldn't love this school more! We had Ms. Wilson for kindergarten and she was just fabulous - loving, firm and charismatic. My son flourished under her care and direction!

  Miss Wilson is an AMAZING teacher! She made my oldest sons kinder experience a great one for not only him, but me as well! She has so much patience and seeing her with the children is heartwarming. Waggoner is a great school and I am excited to now have both my children as students there!

  I felt some reviews where a little mistaken and outdated and since I looked in this site when looking for a school, I wanted to give my insight. This is an amazing school, my son is finishing Kindergarten and I couldn't ask for a better teacher. (all of the Kindergarten teachers) are the best. He is completely ready for 1st grade. The Principal and staff know everyone by name and do far beyond their duty. There is a lot of parent volunteers and a very active PTO. I am sure the next years will be as wonderful as well.

  We love Waggoner, for a few reasons: 1. Many parents are super actively involved. This means they are vested in their kids education. They involve other parents and build the community. 2. The staff is super professional, but also very friendly and willing to communicate with you . They always get back to my emails very quickly and I really appreciate it. 3. They take learning very seriously, but also fun very seriously. I'm glad to have a school that balances it both out. I mean, they ARE children for heaven's sake. Work hard, play hard. Come to waggoner!

  We love Waggoner school, both my girls go there and they have always felt safe and flourished under the guide of the amazing teachers. Even the crosswalk guard knows and helps my kids.

  Waggoner Elementary rocks! The teachers, staff, and parents all work really well together to create an environment of partnership that facilitates learning and growth!

  We thought we had found a great school in Waggoner after researching our options. Unfortunately, we have been very disappointed. Her Kindergarten teacher was nice but totally unorganized and chaos reigned in the classroom. Just when we thought it could not get worse, the teacher mysteriously disappeared and the poor kids had a string of substitutes. Now, there is a less than permanent teacher who still has no control over the class. The parents were given very little information throughout the transitions and, although we meet with the principle several times, we felt our concerns were not listened to. It also appears that this is not the best school for a more advanced child who needs more challenges. Very disappointed!!!!

  The old principal was dismissed for harassing co-workers with inappropriate pictures. The current principal shows up to school dressed like she is headed to a disco. This school is not serious about educating children. No parent that loves their child would send them here. The teachers are here for an easy $40K income with benefits. The school needs a whole new administration and teachers.

  My grandkids attend Waggoner School and I volunteer there in their classrooms. Great teachers and great students. The teachers have control on behavior and still are caring and helpful.

  Great school! The principal and teachers are wonderful! My son went to 2nd grade for 2 weeks after being home schooled for over a year. It was to difficult for him. His birthday comes after the school year starts, so he was one of the younger students. The principal and his teacher recommended we move him to first grade. They handled it so well! I'm blown away...the students in his 2nd grade class made him good bye cards and they even let me bring in cupcakes. They really care how he and his classmates feel about the situation. It's well organized and very comfortable. I can't wait to enroll my kindergartner next year! I have not seen and could not even imagine any racial problems or mean teachers. If there is a problem, I believe it would be swiftly taken care of.

  Terrible school. One kindergarten teacher seats "certain" students at a separate table. A second grade teacher humiliates underperforming students in front of the class. This intolerance is unacceptable. There are much more constructive ways to interact with these young children. Some parents are in the classrooms on a daily basis, strongly biasing the teachers towards particular groups of students. Think twice before sending your children to this school!

  School has many social problems. Racial intolerance is simply one of them. Many of the teachers belittle certain children. A few of the parents make racist comments quite frequently. Several children have left the school as a result of these social problems.

  I have been so impressed with Waggoner! My children love it there. The teachers are phoenominal. I'm not sure where the parent who complained about racial tolerance was coming from....our non-caucasian children have not experienced any intolerance that we are aware of. Overall, this is an outstanding school.
