I went here around 10 years ago and overall, it wasn't bad for a public elementary school. The teachers are definitely a hit or miss. If you get a "bad" teacher, it'll be tough. I would say it was pretty easy to get involved with activities as there was a lot offered. The facility and resources were also good for an elementary school.

We love Williams. The teachers put in a lot of effort into making learning fun. They plan activities that extend learning outside of textbooks. The PTA has been revamped and does a great job supporting students, parents, and teachers.

Very good school and a lot of fun activities. My daughter used to be at private school but now she loves this school more. I am happy and surprised the teacher are with mater degrees. Yes donation is asked but it is tax credit. We are happy to do it.
