Waterford School Reviews
Initially, we had concerns about diversity, inclusion, and academic focus at the school. However, after speaking with the administration and other parents, we learned that Waterford is committed to celebrating diversity and creating a welcoming environment for all students. Children are encouraged to express their own opinions and develop critical thinking skills. Additionally, reading is highly encouraged, and PreK-3 students attend a weekly library class.
