They lack diversity and integrity. Every review that isn’t appealing is always deleted. It’s all wrong.

Great school. The principal and teachers are very involved and closely work with the parents. Mr. Martin the principal has been very proactive and closely works with the parents & teachers. So far my daughter has had great experience.

Coming from abroad (Europe) i was anxious about the schools in USA. I am more than happy from Waterloo. My child doesn't speak English but he has all the attention he needs. The students with the help of all teachers and staff are doing their BEST.
