Willow Glen Middle is not a school I would recommend, they do not have credited staff to help with emotion and social support for our students.

In our experience the principal and admin are not able to manage IEPs and 504s. There is a lack of communication between admin and staff and accommodations are not followed.

WGMS is an amazing school. The staff is highly responsive and will work with you to support your student. I appreciate the communication and dedication to supporting the middle school mind.
