The school has some amazing teachers but many that don't care about the kids. Teachers that bully kids, yells and screams at them and treats a whole class like they are criminals.

Great administration since changes applied. Gained accreditation and continue to improve. My child loves Waterview (name changed.)

Overall the school responds promptly with any concerns. There is somewhat of a lack in organization and planning.

Felt like my child was being picked on by teachers. She was mean and nasty.

The school has such promise if it was under the right administration that cares about the staff and the students.
