GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

My kids have loved their time at CWES so far. The admin is great and very responsive. The teachers we have had have been amazing. Especially happy with the special education support they receive. Very active pta and lots of events that make it fun for the kids.

My son attended CWES as a foreign student for 2 years. He did not only had the best time of his life but also showed great progress in his academic status. Thank you to all the staff in CWES for your passion in teaching.

Since Dr. L has stepped in the school has been a mess. Communication with the principals is non-existent. Students are not held accountable for their actions. There is no real consequence for disruptive/dangerous behavior. Teachers try to step up but there is just not enough support for them to mana...

Overall a lot has changed at CWES over the past few years. I've been watching the school decline for about 3-4 years and have not seen any improvement in communication and leadership. I'm very disappointed but it's my child's final year so it won't matter anymore.
