All four of our children have attended public school in wadena and we have been and continue to be very pleased with our choice to send them here. The teachers we have had genuinely cared about the well being of our kids, they weren’t just some random student. Even with other schools nearby we will always be enrolling our kids at WDC, there’s never been a need to look elsewhere!

I don't understand some of the other reviews. We have two children enrolled at Wadena-Deer Creek Elementary and we are extremely happy with their education. My sons both do wonderful in school, all of their teaches are very caring and let us know of concerns right away. Everyone is so positive and you can tell the teachers have so much heart into everything they do. This is an A+ school and my kids love it here!

The teaching at the Wadena Schools is horrible. There are a few that care but most do not. They just want to pass the kids and push them through. I have interacted with many of the students and they have no comprehension of the materials. They get D's in their classes and are still pushed through.

The elementary school doesn't teach well at all and it's frustrating! The way they teach handwriting is difficult. They way math is presented is very frustrating and makes it difficult to help your child at home!
